i'm no mechanic so any work on my bug will be by a specialist.
Does anybody know what the cast would be and better still recommend someone!

My local garage charges me £45/hour plus VAT, and two other local ones £60/hr. That's in Sussex, and for general mechanical work. Engine and transmission specialists may work on a fixed charge per unit basis. My previous experience shows that rates can vary widely across the country. Some bodywork repairs a few years ago were priced literally at double in Sussex what I was quoted in the Glasgow area. So it pays to shop around. One of the local garages here at the £60 rate is an all-types of car place, the other is a classics only, so you won't necessarily pay more at a classics specialist - unless their typical client base is classic Rolls, Bentleys and Ferraris. But there are many places focussing on the practical classics such as MGBs, Ford Anglias and Morris Minors. These would be the places to aim for.
