    So my oil ran low and I thought I'd quickly just change the oil filter since I had a spare 1. I accidentally damaged the pipe that runs directly over the oil filter housing and it just snapped off
    It inter connects with a joint just where the oil fill cap is. Question is is there some sort of "T" connector I could use (part number please?) or do I have to buy the whole assembly?
    when i let go of what i am....i become what i might be

    Hi 786sam I suppose your well sorted by now but I believe I might have had the same problem as you, I believe its in the line from the extra water pump to the EGR unit, you have probably noticed that the whole of the tube is made of plastic and is very brittle indeed, like all the rest of the plastics under the bonnet,in my case the whole tube broke into little pieces including the T junction at the end.I replaced the tube with some fuel hose and the T connector with a brass unit I bought on Ebay if your not sorted let me know i have lots left over
