 Almost all UK covers have the line
"Printed in England by Robor Ltd, Lancing, Sussex"
at the right bottom of the back sleeve

Found a copy with just "Printed in England"

 You're right, it looks like this Israel edition. And maybe it is a UK export edition, like you suggested.

But it is definitely a UK edition.
Firstly, it came in the same embossed sleeve as this 1st edition.
But more importantly, it is missing the ! in the title on the labels. Only the UK-edition is missing this, even on the 1982 re-issue (and on some exotic editions like the Philippines and the 1st release in Spain or the last release in South Africa )

 The label variation seems to be identical to the one, which is listed here as "Israel" pressing.

 I used to own a pair of those shoes. They did look sharp too!

 The sleeve is embossed, except for the shoes (by Denson) on the front cover and the shirt on the back cover. It just has to Look Sharp!

 Scans added. Source is a white vinyl version which has also an embossed sleeve.

 My US copy (SP-4743) has a poster. The poster is numbered (SP 4743). It is the same poster that appears in the Look Sharp! Merchandising Kit. The poster combined with the record seems to be a tight fit so I'm not sure if it was released that way or perhaps added afterwards.

 I think it's noteworthy, that original copies came with an embossed sleeve. To my knowledge, the first issues sold by the UK chain "W.H.Smith" came with a poster. Perhaps somebody can confirm or correct this?
Testpressings were already pressed in November 1978.

 Standard, promo and testpressing copies exist.
