I think you're probably very close to the truth (if not spot-on) there Stefan.

It certainly does! It's the part number for a Rover KV6 2.5 litre inlet camshaft listed in 2002 (it superseeded LGC 107730 on very early cars such as mine).

Thanks very much for posting that detail which has answered the question brilliantly! Stewart, you can now confirm that you have the correct inlet camshaft for your engine. The exhaust camshaft part number didn't change; it is LGC 107740.
