The current Raspberry Pi image (3.22.4) is the wrong size as per image. Will not install.

I'm no expert in installing Pi images, but I couldn't help but notice the file is in RAR format rather than the customary ZIP format. Does that make a difference? If it does then perhaps we need the file in ZIP format?

Raspberry Pi Imager does not accept *.rar files (only works with *.img, *.zip, *.iso, *.gz, *.xz and *.zst)
So @dazza1223 - please compress the image to an *.zip as before.
Meanwhile, @BrunswickWeather could either unzip the *.rar before using it (that produces a file called baseimage-3.22.4.img, which is usable), or use Balena Etcher instead of the generally-preferred Raspberry Pi Imager.

Yes realised that was the issue and now I have fixed it I've created a temporary link so you can download the image while we wait for Mark to upload it to cumulusmx Wikipedia page
