Later Range Rovers used the Borg Warner T-box, it has a slightly different ration, something like (don't quote me) 1.22:1.  It will fit your Disco (a Range Rover in hiding anyway) but the original Diesel engines may have been different units, the Rangie being the VM lump.  It will fit but is not a direct replacement.

right ,had a look at my donor box,as you rightly say it is from a vm diesel rangie..
it has    HRC 1472
            BSK 3
  and    1:222  on the box just above the filler bung if this helps identify it?

 will want it to fit a 200 series disco diesel

a disco 200 & 300 tdi transfer box is a 1.22 ratio,same with all the other diesels,

a defender box is 1.410 ratio,

V8s are about 1.1 i think
