Finally got the pump off (well, my welder did!) and took it to a local 'reliable' engineer Water Pumps - Vintage, Veteran & Classic Water Pumps - UK

The old bearing is hand pressure seized.
The offending top bolt was virtually seized into the block by corrosion. Now to refit with new ss bolts and plenty of anti corrosion fluid. A non standard part are studs in place of the two lower bolts with W/W nuts. |
