Thanks People,
Haven't been able to find a suitable alternator replacment for the serptine belt version of the rover V8, I had mine rebuilt for $300, however, its still a bit dodgy were the bearing has spun in the rear housing, I guess i will just keep my eyes open for a U/S second hand altenator and replace the rear housing from that.
