thats a 300 tdi if its got a 19j number stamped on it somethings dodgy like a nicked engine, its possible someone bought a genuine engine and wanted to retain the old number but thats still wrong

Could it have been rebuilt on a 19J block, using 300 head, sump, etc?

thats a 300 block in the pic.you can tell from lift pump position
Turboman

In that case, the only likely scenario I can see is that they have stamped the number of the 19j that came out of the vehicle on the new block.

It came from a wrecked disco but I suppose anything could happen down the line. As long as the no looks legit for Irish import it should be fine I think they just want a no that matches the log book no.Thanks for your help
