Mick,
Just did a bit more checking and the control valve pictured is for the later Lockheed type 6 Booster used for the UK MK3 S and 1275 GT. There's a picture of it in the blue or black MINI Workshop Manual, section Mb, page M-10. Definitely won't fit the MK1 booster. Totally different.
As far as I know these were never used on OZ built cars. When the MK1 Booster was superseded by the type 6 in the UK, in OZ they changed to the PBR VH44 type used on the later OZ MK2 S and Clubman GT.

Yeah I was certain of this as well, he was advertising it as a Mk1 lockheed booster so I asked the question. Apparently these have been the replacements made for the original items (yuk, plastic). I didn't get this one from the guy in the end, so we'll see what comes with the kit. About a hundred dollars Oz is what I paid for the complete kit in the end with post.
