The final version of the 541 theme was subtantially revised and entitled, the
541-S. Fully 4" wider, more headroom and the front flap replaced by a more
conventional grille. The Austin engine was now coupled to a Rolls-Royce
modified GM Hydramatic gearbox although 20 manual box cars were built.
Total 541-S production was: 127.
In my video at around 15 seconds you can see the badge appear at the back.541-S. Fully 4" wider, more headroom and the front flap replaced by a more

You could try emailing the guy who runs http://www.jensen541.com/541news.htm incase they know of someone after one.

Good call. I knew I'd seen it somewhere.I suspect it was used on the BMC 1100/1300s as well.
For the Injection badge, I'm was leaning towards an American Chevy. This is not quite the same but very similar in execution on a Corvette:
However, call me Colombo (see the link?) because it's a Peugeot and I never even knew they were injected!
