The motor live and neutral seems to be wired to the PCB connector X12 via the blue bundle. It doesn't look like it is dependent on a feed from the burner control box (TF830), though it's neutral wire is connected to one of the TF830 pins. That is why I tried it without the TF830 connected, and it still blew a fuse. This is what made me conclude it was nothing to do with the TF830, and must therefore be the PCB that was faulty. I have edited my previous post to clarify that I was talking about the burner control box, not the PCB behind the control panel.
I have looked at extracting the PCB - it doesn't look damaged as far as I can tell in-situ - but it looks like a real bugger to get out due to the thermostat pipes, etc. I am therefore heading towards getting it sorted by Worcester-Bosch under their all-in price repair. I tried, but I think I may have reached my limit at doing it myself
