In fact you find me a cheap good new 2wd one and i'll sell you mine! Just bought a 4x4 engine done 1500 miles with a new "wrc" oil pump in. My car is 2wd so need to change sump and pump.

Matt Lewis got mine for £185.00 uprated 5 bar 4x4 Pump

You can use the 4x4 pump and pick-up pipe cause that what my engine runs in my BMW and it has a 2wd sump

Obviously you haven't tried ringing them, as they haven't got any genuine ones in stock (not due until middle of May-ish) . Burton / GGR have the copies in stock, but up to you if you take the risk. I have seen several of these fail within a very short period of time (ask Simon at Woodfordes, he'll tell you the same).

Genuine one is £195 + £10 for the high flow conversion kit.

Modification is a piece of piss

Offer the sump up and you will see where the piston spray bars foul the sump, adjust them gentally with a pair of soft faced grips and then adjust the spray jets to point back to where they did before

Its obvious when you see it with the sump off what you need to do - takes about 15 mins tops
