I originally ordered the one listed for the car, but like was pointed out, that wont fit as it had a drain on the bottom of it and so it sits too high in the holder.
So.
I ordered another one, off the part number from your photos in your how to guide.
Unfortunately, the thread hadn't been cut correctly, so I couldn't fit that either!
So the original one went back on the car, and the damn thing leaked as the seal had been compressed for that long it wouldn't reseal!

SO FINALLY.
I got a fuel filter for a Land Rover, 2.5 diesel. The thread is spot on, but it's a little shorter than the original.
That's on. It runs fine, no leaks. It might not be original, but if it can filter the fuel for a 2.5 engine, I'm sure it will manage a 2.0.

I presume you purchased one of these then.
