IIRC, ALL multivalve corsa sumps are aluminium, and possible the 8v ones too.

well yeah, I can see the genuine GM stuff being expensive, but on sel, the sump is £52 for the petrol one... so I cant really see it costing the garage much more than that, hell, would probably only cost them about £35 to be honest... IF its not a GM one...

You could have bought a speedline allesio, melted it down , had it remolded and fitted WITH oil.

And that still would have been cheaper.
