Scott, the Leyland Workshop Manual quotes the following for all 
engines:-

Oil pressure relief valve - 70psi
Relief spring free length - 3 in.
Relief spring fitted length - 2 5/32 in.
Load at fitted length - 15.5 to 16.5.

There is also mention of either two fibre packing washers or one steel, 
no dimensions, but I have read elsewhere that they equate to 100 thou.
