Torque the three bolts holding the pump to the head to 10Nm. Tighten the union nut on the fuel line to 25Nm.
If equipped, tighten the banjo bolt to 17Nm.

You're right ^^, it is 10Nm!
I inadvertently quoted the low fuel pressure sensor torque from that pdf.   :ashamed:

Very helpful, cheers!  :notworthy:  Should be added to changing cam follower guide  :happy2:

What is thought to be the better fuel line to have; the rubber left hand line or the steel one?

The rubber line is the later revision and is better as it allows easier changing of the cam follower.

I have the rubber one. Going to replace the spring clip as it's a bit rusty
