Eeek - Oil leak root cause
I have found the root cause of the leak from the oil pressure gauge.
I have been tracing the wiring rats nest and found that one of the wires in the headlight circuit had overheated and melted itself and some others insulation. This also burnt the oil pressure line in 3 places, hence the leak.
Looks like a rewire is the most sensible option, this time it is going to be done with relays and fuses everywhere.
As luck would have it... a large heavy box arrived on Friday containing the complete loom from a Nissan Patrol v6. I am stripping it down and will use it to generate a new loom for George.
I will try an fashion a replacement fascia for the control switches and lights when I work out what I am going to do.
