I remember a discussion on here relating to this very item (I think). at the time members believed it to be a Land rover sleeve, as did I. In all fairness I believe he did not list it as genuine but machined to fit a 75 as you said. He may have been astounded as to the bidding, or not suprised, because from what I understand people including club member/s have actually bought and re sold them for the price you paid. They to listed them as Land rover I think, I know they did not list or try to pass them off as genuine.
I did buy several myself, I modified them for free and forwarded them to international members for what I paid (£10), because the original seller would not ship outside the UK. I also fitted several for free.
