Yes, I'm hoping so, but was hoping someone might have either had a working used one or been able to confirm specification so I can source:

Looking at the catalogue I'm thinking its probably a group 3 gear pump, but could be one of four rectangular flange sizes (B, X, C or D), two toothed shaft options and a choice of port options (Probably SAE rather than BSP?) and without knowing the pto ratio I'm not sure on displacement to give the rated or greater 91 l/min @210Bar.
any luck with this pump yet?

Ended up ordering from Merlo, got the pump number, which I suspect is not original:

Casappa FP30.38D0-83E3-LGF/GE-N-MRL in case it helps anyone.

My usual go-to, mentioned earlier couldn't offer an equivalent, OEM apparently on 20-30 weeks and for a standard gear pump with matching interface was going to be only slightly cheaper to have one made up and non-returnable if it was wrong, so was a no brainer with he options I had.

Definitely have you noted for future reference though, thanks.
