No. I'm not sure what species of weevil you've got there but "pea weevil" is a common name for weevil species in the genus Sitona which typically have shorter and broader heads than that.
If you look up Sitona lineatus you'll see the kind of shape I'm talking about. |

Hey Les, Quote: |
Hey Klaas, that's thanks to you!
| what for? You did a good job. It was not easy at this small reproduction scale to determine the beetle and you did it right. So it is your job, not mine, and you did it very well (in my mind). Take a look in the mirror and say "Thank you!2 to the person you can see there. 
Regards
Klaas
