Thanks Richard.

All looks good, and will help me as I experiment with trying reduce the the infamous TD4 2k misfire.

The grey Freelander 2 looked great BTW.

Route the breather away from the turbo intake pipe, and vent to the atmosphere temporarily. Then block the turbo intake pipe with a plug or can lid, or anything else that will seal it up temporarily.
The see if it makes a difference to the 2k misfire.
It's something that was always on my "things to try" list, but I never got round to it.

Thanks and will try that.
Reading your thread on the subject a while back, I have to agree that temperature plays an important part. Once I'm up to the magic 88C it's no longer present (so far).
It's not going to be a high priority problem to tackle as we go through the winter months, but any time I have to have the induction pipes etc off to do work, I'll try out some different things to see if it helps.
