Click on the first link and it gives a part number of LR023283 which is for FL2 from 2009 onwards - yours is 2011 I believe.
It also has a picture

Try LRparts.net they are asking £323 for a pattern part, £522 for an OEM part, and yes £1,300 for genuine part, all plus VAT.

In theory there is a hole under the rear seat covered by a rubber bung about 150-200mm diameter, this is for access to the fuel gauge / pump.
Unfortunately I "nudged" my tank rearwards of ... |

Second hand petrol DS are rare, going to suggest that D240 are even rarer, and not much better on fuel. But these are the later ones to go for.

My advice would be to stick with the FL2 at this point, as the Disco Sport insurance has gone through the roof.
Yes there have been increases due to long waits for spares, but the DS and other newer ... |

Now the bad news, all codes on Opie oils are now defunct - even the staff ones
Been on the phone yesterday trying to get the oil a little cheaper.  |

That's going to be annoying.
We are nipping to Spain through France and the Tunnel tomorrow, so have paid the Dart charge in advance.
By nipping I mean 1,600 miles (2 days) each way. |

Agreed, we live in a different world.
Even when the FL2 was relatively new many of us would still stick our heads under the bonnet, possibly more Land Rover fans rather than Land Rover drivers.
