@rover range can't thank you enough for the help. I pulled the part out and confirmed it is the oil restrictor that I shared in the ebay link. It's on order! Panic level now returning to a more even and stable level.

Dear @weezer – thanks for posting and creating a very helpful thread!
Dear @Rover Range – always helpful and thanks for assisting the tribe with your knowledge and experience!
The photograph is what I found on the back of the cylinder heads (look familiar!?!) ….so seems like I will now be ordering some (more) items from Parts Geek soonest.
However, I am curious about the 2011 Service Bulletin mentioned by @Rover Range in another related thread about this part # LR011688 -
https://www.landroverworld.org/threads/oil-anti-drain-valve-in-top-of-engine-block-5-0-lr4.45134/
Is there a reason for this Bulletin? I want to replace this part because it is an oil restrictor (and I would like to free up as much oil as possible) as well as it is this tiny plastic part pretty deep in the engine (and certainly don’t want it to break!) Nothing has broken (yet) but I think prudent to be safe rather than sorry.
Your insights are most welcome!
