The point about where the play I'm measuring actually is is a very good one.... I've checked today, and it is within the bearing as opposed to the bearing to the crank.
So I think I'm replacing the bearing - I'll start hunting out supply.
Apologies for my lack of experience but I'm not clear what "lipseal to replace the original oil return scroll" means - I'll get researching!
David, I had started reading your previous post - I'll go and read the rest now!
Best,  James

James,

I found the comments on my thread most useful. Incidentally, an uncaged roller rear main seems to work very well. 7564 miles since it was fitted and all is well.

Regards,
David.
