Mounting rubbers arrived, £23 industrial price not honda's idea of £135 I must add.
A quick fettle this evening and it lives 
only tried briefly as the rubber grease around the impellor will only go so far and it's raining and geting dark so I'm not getting a water tub sorted tonight, the main bit is it runs and oil pressure light does as it should, had to re-check the book as a lit oil light says problems to me but on the honda it has to be lit to be ok.
If the weather plays fair at the weekend I may wrestle my rib and trailer out of the garden for a test run on the local river, or I may just have a hangover.....
I'm a happy bunny!

Run it in a water tub tonight for a longer run and it was leaking water around the inlet manifold (it's inlet/exhaust and water cooled) so a bit more fettling around that, the face on the head is good and the head/cylinder block face all looked good.
There were no signs of leaking between the sections just around the outer face of the water part.
Will have to give the manifold face a going over at work tomorrow and try again.
