Hi welcome main problems are the abs valves causing the 3 dash lights (search 3 amigos online) a really badly sited compressor can cause air suspension models to fail giving the bags a slow leak the V8 is a solid engine but can have radiator expansion tank and cap failures
the other issue is electrics windows and door looms are problematic
you may not have removed all the bolts recheck your work pump should come out easy once loosened up ..they due still alittle so put allitte pressure on it ..if all bolts are removed
My 96 Discovery has a plastic baffles inside the valve cover port that connects to the hose. If it got brittle and cracked, then oil could leak by. Its cheap and easy to replace, along with the hose. There is a second hose on the other side to replace as well. Land Rover was proud to pass emissions standards without using exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). The whole system is sealed, so all the air entering the engine is being metered by the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor, unless your breather hoses crack and leak. Unfortunately, oil in your location might also indicate other engine trouble, such as worn piston rings (causing pressure in the crankcase). I would try replacing the plastic baffle piece first.
should be a seal issue, not mechanical. Is the roof opening/closing properly? If so, while open examine the weatherstripping and look for damage or abnormal wear. with power roofs, sometimes the movement wears down the sealing abilty pending on its usage or debris hiding inside.
the steering boxes on those were leaky messes, seal kits, rebuilt and new units are availible. expect a couple hours for a good mechanic to remove and replace, resealing takes a longer once the unit is out. be sure to also check the steering hoses and pipes for leaks, pretty much everything is located in the front left of the engine compartment. check out roversnorth.com and atlanticbritish.com for parts and prices. stay away from land rover dealers if you can to save on cost.
The gas smell is from your tail door seal,the window that is open causes a vacuum from this area , adjust the door to close tighter or replace the seal.V8 idling problem ,remove and clean the idle control valve situated on the rhs rear of the intake manifold (seen from the drivers seat )adjust the idling on the allen key screw near to the throttle cable lincage.
