Just an update on this, turned out that Volvo do not stock this part any more so I took the risk and ordered the advertised genuine Volvo part from ebay, coming from Lithuania. Took 3 weeks to arrive but it was spot on, the right Volvo part. Cost £98, which was about £30 cheaper than the aftermarket part from PFS.
Fitted it today and I was surprised how easy the job was and without complication. Of the 4 bolts that need to be undone, 3 can be accessed from the wheel arch but the 4th has to be accessed laid under the car, so I had to use my ramps for that.
