Hi,

I have a leaking PAS pump (NTC8287)... couple of questions.
1 = is it worth buying the seal kit and try to repair it?
2 = if I need to get a new one is there anyway to use a 300tdi PAS on my 200tdi engine due to its half the price?

Seal kit might work, but the deign of the pump is carp as the defender version has a longer nose, and in the longer nose is a support roller bearing, which sadly does not run in oil so has a finite life, I have had two shafts shear clean off.
As you have noted they are twice the price of all other versions!

Try some power steering leak stop fluid first.
