Mercedes part # 601 070 01 46
Bosch part #1 469 990 351

Friendly,not so Local, Bosch Diesel Service Center Says:
Valve OBSOLETED by Robert Bosch Gmbh August 2002

Suggestion from him: ("If it were Mine")
VE type Pumps have the same Fuel Pressure AND their
overflow valve(s) are simply a Orifice (Venturi) WITH
a Teenie ,Tiny screen filter...

Bosch part# 1 463 456 303

So, the only draw back to substituting the VE overflow
for the M type would be NO Bio"D" above 20% AND
Certainly No WVO. (Trash in the fuel would clog the
tiny screen.)

On the positive side the VE type Overflow Valve is
only $15.00 USD (When ordered as Bosch part# from Bosch)
