I’m pretty sure it will. I know 5 and 3 bearing petrol heads are interchangeable, so other than maybe different ancillaries, I think the basic head is the same. 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV

thanks mate, cant find anything that confirms or denies it, maybe just the bolt threads in the head being metric or imperial is the only difference as the difference between 5 bearing crank and 3 bearing crank shouldnt interfere with the layout of the head ?
