There is no reason why you cant put just about any engine you feel like into your Landrover. You might be best finding a decent engine that is very common where you are so that you can easily source parts rather than trying to get a 300tdi (or the better 200tdi) from the UK.
You could get a 300 out of a Disco without problem. You may need to ake some alterations to your bulk head, engine mountings and fit an electric fan (and do away with the cowling). I have a 200tdi out of a Disco in my 90 and its the best thing I ever did. They cost a fraction of a defender 200tdi and they are more powerful. For the sake of some very minor alterations to make it fit I wouldnt be scared off.
