Loo-knee - thats precisely why I replace the banjo bolts in the coolant bridge and oil cooler ;D

Yes, that connector is crank sensor.

I have been told that when I buy a new Cam Sensor which look a pain in the arse to route, it will be a different connector?

No, you buy the correct crank sensor with the right connector!

2 types for v6.

Look at sensor end (by oil filter).  If metal, you need expsensive type with square connector (£60 + VAT). If plastic, cheaper type with oval connector, £35 + VAT.  That looks like oval type from piccy, but double check oil filter end.

But then, you knew all that, as being a V6 owner, you always carry a spare crank sensor.....

The dealer probably can't tell you which type due to lack of breakpoint info on EPC
