Might be worth a test on the coolant and fuel systems before the body goes back on to make sure there are no leaks from the hose clamps or fuel joins anywhere, while you have the access..

That's a good shout but I wont be able to get any pressure in there... I don't plan on rushing the next stage as I want to do everything I want to whilst I have great access.
