Looks a bit complicated for that. Mine is a simple level sensor fitted to the wall of the header tank.

What is the cylinder above the header tank? Some kind of venting arrangement?

Hi Skel
Thanks and apologies for the slow response. Yup, that's the one. I had to set it aside for a few weeks but I'm on it now, had my inspector give it a once over and am now making up a shopping list. I've signed up on FB but that does seem a little slow. I'm sure I'll get responses if I ask anything though.
For a while I was thinking of fitting a 912 but there's a weight issue so I'll stick with the 582 and maybe look for a later model for the 912 later. For now I'll be replacing bungees, screens (front and side), fitting larger wheels/tyres (our strip bogs in the winter), Maule tailwheel and looking into the aluminium tank that may have the sealant problem. Other than that I'm hoping it's just going to be a light renovation with replacement of a few bolts etc.
Unless you can persuade me otherwise.......?

Warning! Thread resurrection alert!
As of today I'm the owner of a Mk2. It's not flown for five years so I've a bit of work to do before getting airborne but it's not in need of anything major. Some fabric tape, new screen and windows, tanks flushing, general clean up.....there's a bit of a list.
I'd also like to make improvements where I can. It won't be a touring aircraft, I'm more interested in bettering low speed handling and take-off and landing characteristics. Probably larger tyres (our strip doesn't drain well in winter)......any other suggestions or sources of info and parts appreciated thanks.
