When fitting, I do remember having to think about the orientation of the bush before pushing it into it's aluminium housing so that the diff would still stay level wherever the bush bolt engaged in the elongated slot in the mounting and still line up.

It was the original OEM bush that was fitted which has a centre hole. However I found this image from a thread back in 2103, so will press it in as highlighted unless someone knows any different.

Wonder if someone could provide any help with this. Tomorrow I'm going to remove the fuel tank from the car along with the fuel lines, as some one has made a right bodged job when replacement lines were fitted. Also removing them as while I've been under the car today, I smelt fuel on a few occasions. I cannot see any leaks there is just a smell of petrol. I want to take the grinder to the car to remove the rust, and don't want a fireball while I'm doing this.
From not a very good memory there is less then 1/4 of a tank left so want to understand the best way of removing the tank on the coupe. The boot area is already stripped down, can I remove it with the fuel inside the tank or am I best draining the tank first, if so what is the best way of doing that on this car.
Thanks for any advice.

If you can, have a look at where along the slot the original OE mount bolt with its central hole sat before you took it apart. If the original was off-centre in the slot use the orientation of the replacement mount to bring it back towards the centre - even if it then overshoots the centre a little.

A quick search and I found this. I'm sure there are others.
