Any suggestions on what to use to study for WSUS as it's not in any of the exam prep books that I know of.

I'd get onto Technet and see what they have to offer. Also download it, install it play around with it, use GPO's to ensure clients start to update with it etc... Learn how to upgrade SUS to WSUS etc...

looks like I'm going to have to dust off my testing rig and install VMware. Is it just me cause I find Technet confusing to navigate and find info

Use it.

There's also plenty of white papers on WSUS on Microsoft's site.

WSUS v2 is in the exam mate (well, when I took it anyway), v3 has just be released and is completly different.

Me: You need to buy a couple of servers.
Customer: Whats wrong with the servers I have?
Me: Well, you dont have *any* servers just now.
Customer: WTF! I thought I did!

The only way to be sure is to be familiar with all versions. It's hard to know what to expect when it comes to MS and what questions they will throw at you.

If I asked here is because I could not find it in MS website.

Your answer is not helpful... do you know the link to the page that says what version is being tested?
