Default Steering pump bracket

Had a bit of squealing from the aux belt - went to check the tensioner only to find the bracket had snapped... thought this would be easy to source and (foolishly) an easy fix.. here's me 2 days down the line and a car I can't/won't drive.

Even when I talk to the dealer.... it's clear they have no idea what I'm talking about... replacement £9.99 (but you might have to bend it into shape)... ::me:: er you know it's cast aluminium and wouldn't bend in the fires of hell?... "er... I'll call you back"

Anyhoo here's the thing - I "think" I've ordered the correct part (based on a free and full refund return promise)

I've attached (hopefully) a pic of the part and could do with some advice as to removal/replace of said part


I've got the bit about moving the powered steering reservoir and access through the wheel arch (cos stupidly, my first thought the tensioner - if only)... after that I'm flying blind and Haynes is worse that useless...
