So, after multiple heating, spraying with PlusGas and cooling cycles I've so far only managed to break off the handle.
I suppose I'll keep going with the heat, spray, cooling cycle and try to turn with stilsons...or give up and get a pro in.
Appreciate all the responses folks.
Taking into account...

doing a bit more reading. This is an interesting piece https://www.frenchcarforum.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=3700

...I'll do a bit more heating, spraying and cooling throughout...
My heat gun's a Wagner Furno 750, 50 - 630 centigrade.
Was thinking of buying a cheap car wheel wrench, cutting a slot in the end to get a purchase on the tap and trying to turn it through that good, balanced leverage.
Not urgent in any way but cannot unseize this stop tap.
I loosened the packing box and sprayed WD 40. Heated it up with a heat gun and sprayed some more. Repeated a number of times but can't get it to turn at all.
Any tips please?
Here's another one...question that is.
If I needed to replace one of the cartridges is it the case that I just shut off the water supply, unscrew the cartridge and screw in the new one?
Afternoon all
As the title states I need to know what this plastic part, which engages with the cartridge spline, is called to so that I might source a replacement.
Thanks in advance
