You can use the Rover SD1 9.5" AP clutch cover but you will need a driven plate to match the gearbox splines of the T5 and fit within the 9.5" cover.
This assumes standard rover flywheel or bolt pattern.
If you talk to AP they should be able to offer you a combination that will work.
By the way there are several different version of the T5 box with different ratios and gear lever positions, what car is is gioing into.
For T5 specific advice you could have a look at this US forum.
