Continuing with this - both sumps removed.
XUD7 sump 'fits' apart from a locating pin on the XUD9 block (which i can file down) and the screw holes are in different locations on the two longer edges.
Rather than buying a new XUD9 sump, could I get away with drilling new holes along the longer edges with a liquid gasket ?
Just to confirm, both oil pumps are the same - removed the XUD7 pump and compared - they're like for like
