Not sure on housing but looks same as on my mk2, but your solenoid would be as per this one

I would however look for an old one in good condition as I have no confidence in new lucas parts.

I'd agree with Daz, those repro solenoids are at best crap, at worst .....
An original genuine Lucas one is the way to go
