Yes it is a commom component of the time, looks a bit like and old style hair dryer (contact the registra as I beleive he has an abundance of unused ones) mine has given up and I must get round to fixing it.When I do I will probably replace it with a euro box one that may blow more air.
Our Ph2 has a large air tube from behind the LH headlamp through the top of the wheelarch to a heater/blower mounted on the bulkhead behind the engine. I am sure this is non-standard, but I must say it is very effective, even though it is a (whispers) MGB heater. If you would like pictures, I can send some - let me know.
I hope yours is still moving forwards well (sounds like it).
