just a tip on  vauccum and air pipes,

as an ex gas fitter,  you can get a leak detector spray that will show any air escaping,  just spray over the hoses  pipes  etc  and the smallest leak will show as bubbles.  better than washing up liquid.

Hi guys, do you think it's worth a preventative rebuild, 140k
