The little piece of kit inside Virgin's wall box that stops power surges reaching the installed equipment, or back the other way onto the network.

all there is inside Virgin box on the inside of my house is a modulator splitting the single cable input to a TV cable and one for FM. There is nothing that appears to isolate it from the grey box on the wall outside. Im a tad confused

Yep, you've got one of the old ones, which is a combined TV/FM diplexer & isolator.
