The 19j is a pretty antique engine as it goes. With good servicing ( by yourself) and making sure it stays cool it's not a bad engine. Will keep going years but very slow and the head can go.
The common thing to do is convert it to tdi which isn't a terribly difficult job as I did it myself. Haven't got a pic of the old engine now. Parts are not hard to find on eBay.
Not saying I am def right but it certainly looks the same engine.

Looking closer but it looks series 3. Door handles and air intake. Pretty sure you have a series 3 2.25 diesel there.
I think I need to shut up now. James. Help. It's a 2.25 isn't it?

Easiest way to convert is buying a donor vehicle like a 200tdi discovery. It's slightly different on a series 3 which yours looks like. If you can get a defender 200tdi engine much better because the turbo is up high and won't be near the chassis.

this must be his engine then
a 75-horsepower turbocharged version of the 2.25 diesel in 1982. While there is no evidence of the six-cylinder engines ever being evaluated by Solihull, the 2.25TD engine

Sounds like that one Chris.
Deep sea. By turbo position what I mean is on the discovery tdi the turbo is at the bottom. On the defender 200tdi the manifold is different so the turbo is high like yours. These are the most popular engines for conversions
