Cheers for the info Paul.
I have actually been emailing the guy at vintage speed, who is really helpfull, and he has actually come up with 2 alternatives.
The best opition he says is a VDO universal sending unit: 1 551 004 082A.This sending unit is level style, and it can be adjusted. However, I am actually having trouble finding anyone in the UK thats stocks it.

However, as you say, a second option which he suggested was a 1968~1973 Type 2 bus tube style electric fuel sending unit. This is longer as you say and thus should work better.

Would be handy to know how much longer the bay one is though, so if anybodys got one lying around they could measure, it would be really apprecaited, so i could comapare it to the splitty one.
