if it's where I think it is, that may be a pressure relief valve....if you remove the retaining ring........and the planets are alligned correctly, and you have recently made a sacrifice to the Rover Gods.....the spring pressure will push the valve out and you can install a new o-ring on it and put it back together. search and find the correct oring first

yup....that's the oil pressure relief valve....the o-ring needs to be exactly what it's meant to be you'll be doing it again....I would bite the bullet and contact a dealer....or a rover repair shop, I've never seen a real part number for it.....but there has to be one..lol...since this engine is basically an old Buick, maybe you could go that route

I recently did this... O-Ring size is 19mm x 1.5mm. I found a local supplier here that carried Viton (trademark) o-rings and the parts guy gave me two for free.
You can use any o-ring you want as long as it is 19mm x 1.5mm
The real challenge is reinstalling the relief valve with just two hands... you need one more hand to align everything properly and install the circa-clip back in lol.

I phoned a few places locally that sell hydraulic hose fittings and asked if they sold viton branded o-rings, or if they could point me to someone locally. Sometimes it's easier to pick up the phone and make new acquaintances than trying to find stuff online. I eventually found a local supplier called FluidSeal... look for something similar in your area, and give them a call... I jokingly told them it was for a land rover and they warmed up to me

Just give them the size I mentioned when you find your local hydraulic hose fitting supplier
