Just been told its needs a new pressure sensor/valve, they can't get to it because the current manifold hs been welded. therefore need new pressure sensor/valve and manifold. what now then guys?

I can only think of the MAP sensor, which is external therefore a simple swap and the fuel pressure regulator, which is under the plenum. Can anyone local to you in Hull who is conversant with a 180 take a look and confirm this? This welded bit sounds like a red herring to me.

Will be hard to help with exact root of cause without seeing photographic evidence. If you can get something up it will help alot and hopefully we can do something to get this going again.

Am trying to figure out what they think is welded?!?! The plastic inlet manifold or the metal inlet pipes?!?

Same here Gary, does sound odd, so much so I think someone is ducking the work perhaps? No idea as to why the alloy inlets would be welded, can't see it myself. Perhaps it is referring to plastic welding or bonding somewhere where it has affected the assembly of components on the vicinity?

Getting closer! But not close enough  Still can't see what's been done to cause the problem. If the plenum has been welded then it sounds like it has been apart before. Maybe the fuel rail has been disturbed or the pressure regulator is playing up? Had this been plugged into a diagnostic at all?
