Peugeot 207cc 1.6HDi glow plug control unit. The part with the aluminium heat sink.
Anyone know where it lives on the car?

Well I've found it.
It's in the obvious place.
Under the passenger side headlamp.
But I'm not sure if mine is a 7 or 8 pin and the part number doesn't help.
So... bumper off, headlight out, check part, headlight in, bumper on, order part, bumper off, headlight out, replace part, headlight in, bumper on. Hope.
Well that's a faff...

It can be done without removing the headlamp.
Remove all the air intake parts within the red line.
Then use a 10mm socket on a long extension down the side of the headlamp, right next to the wing to undo the single securing nut.
Reach under the headlamp from where the air intake was and grab the relay and pull it back so you can access it.
