Mk2 25 Cut out and died on the Motorway

I was driving to work this morning and as I was going down the slip
road to enter the Motorway the engine lost power, cut out and died
on me, had to be rescused by a big ape in a banana mobile, (A Steve
in a Yellow Cupra R) before getting dumped in a Costa Coffee car
park we had a quick look.

Car has oil.
Battery is 3 months old, connections and slam panel earth point is solid.
Alternator is 3 months old, wiring is solid.
Car Cranks, wont start.
Has compression.
Both belts replaced 2 years ago.
Coolant is as it should be.

Narrowed it down to either the Pump or the main BCU but any other
lines of investigation would be great, should the next test be to take
off the top boost hose and spray WD-40 in it to see if it will fire ?

Car is a 2004 (54) ROVER 25 2.0TD 106k on the clock.
