A source that I recommend for British and German patch identification is titled "Military Collectibles (An International Directory of International Militaria)" published by Salamander Books Ltd.  This book is a little bit hard to find (it's out of print), but it is a wonderful source for information on all kinds of military artifacts and has a huge chapter on metal and cloth insignia.  Since it is published and illustrated in Britain" a large portion of the book covers British militaria.  On the title page it says "A CIP catalog record for this book is available from the Library of Congress" & "ISBN 0-517-14216-4" this may be usefull in helping to find it.  Good Luck!
