This is the pipe that runs from in between the intake boots and down to the side of the block. It has a special restrictive bung in the middle. Mine became brittle and snapped off. As I understand it, this is common due to heat and pressure.

If anyone knows where I can buy one, or might have a spare, that would be very welcome.

Have you tried your OPC? Are they available? A used one will be brittle as well

I will try an OPC. It's possible that someone might have a used one that is newer than the car.

Thanks Steve. However Jon Mitchell is going to tell me how I can make one from ordinary oil hose. I'll report back here.
