Hi,

It a genuine up-rated 4x4 oil pump made by Cosworth engineering.. I bought one new for Ł150 a few years back, now over Ł200 new.

They were sold by Cosworth but manufactured by Bluesprint Motorsport I believe, however these are the ones that had the problem of cracking, have a read here: https://passionford.com/forum/genera...oil-pumps.html

There were 2 versions, the 1st was all billet as in the post above, the 2nd had a billet top and a cast body (rumble finished) and was designed to solve the cracking issue, but they both failed however (this is my own one that failed):

This last version that Cosworth made in house (all cast) is fine:

I'm sorry to say but I would NOT use the pump you have pictured, just not worth the risk.
