So, took the car to the hill up to Newlands Corner (Trodds lane?) sat idling long enough for the oil to find it's own level, then floored it in 1st, 2nd & 3rd.
IT WORKS!
Not so much as a flicker from the oil light. No leaks when I got home either, apart from a possible weep from the pipe that supplies the oil pressure sender, I'd not touched that in the sump works, but the hose is rather large for the fitting - new hose on order.
I shan't have to be so careful with the throttle on the next blatt.
Celebratory madeira cake & custard for me! Hurrah!
