As the shell is rev 1 I did wonder if that was from the cable driven speedo in the dash cluster, but I'd always assumed that would have a square end??

If you've fitted a Rev2 gearbox, you'll need to fit the Rev1 cable speedo drive adaptor in lieu of the electronic one.

Every gearbox has an adaptor to work the speedometer. You'll find it at the back of the gearbox.
Rev1 has cable drive, Rev2-5 has electric.

On the back of your original gearbox the part that cable fits into is removable from the gearbox, remove it carefully and fit it in place of the electronic sender fitted to the gearbox now in your car
