If the servo is working when you started engine with foot on brakes it should have gone down a fraction.

Re: Drilled hole in engine cap
Hole or no hole in the Cap will make no difference to the oil pressure,you either have a release valve problem or the oil pump is getting tired

Re: stiff clutch
Have removed motor and stripped clutch,found a small spring had come off the the clutch cover operating mechanism,it was a bit bent up so I guess it had been caught up somewhere.Luckily still have old clutch cover so swapped spring over.Reassembled and refitted,appears to be OK

I am going to remove engine to check,its an easy job and then I can check clulch out and put my mind at rest.
All the linkage and pedal bits are good,I removed clutch pedal and cleaned it up and greased it all when I fitted new M/Cyl to brakes
