I think the Izusu swap is a common one. However being a diehard Land Rover fan I personally can't stand Landy's with such engines in them, espcially when Land Rover offers some great diesel engines anyhow.
Perkins swaps are also pretty common. But essentially the engine bay is big enough and easy enough to work in that you could fit pretty much any engine as long as you could either get a bell housing to couple to the gearbox or use some other suitable gearbox/transfer box.
If I was looking at swaping a diesel into a Series Land Rover I'd look Tdi, TD5 or maybe the new 2.4 DOHC unit (you could get one from a Ford Transit). Couple it up to a 90 transfer box and use either a LT77 or R380 Rover 5-speed gearbox.
