Thanks for the suggestion Tim, but I managed to snap it and bought a new thicker one and fitted that - still the same result

Collected the seats from the trimmers (and bumpers from the painters) and re-united them with the car.
Started the engine for the first time since the rebuild. Tightened the sump plug and oil tank drain plug.
