    WTB Hose off blow off valve/Engine cover thing

    Hey all, I'm hoping someone here has a spare one of the bigger rubber hose/pipe from the BOV. Mine somehow got wrecked when I took it all out when getting the gearbox out.

    Also, just noticed that the plastic cover on the engine is broken, that must have happened while the car has been sitting. Not important, but just thought I'd check if someone has a spare sitting around they want to sell.

    Just to clarify, the hose is important, the cover isn't so much he he.

    Intact engine covers are a rare thing in the UK. Some reinforcement and a coat of paint is probably your best bet.

    Good luck with the hose.

    I had a feeling they might be, I cracked mine about a week after I got the car! But now its a lot more wrecked! Might try the paint route. Thanks man!

    Is it one of the pipes coming attached to the BOV or just a pipe joining onto one of these pipes that your after?
    I'm not arguing...I'm just offering an endless series of contrary points of view.

    There are two rubber hose/pipes coming off the BOV. Ones about 2-3 inches long, I need the bigger one, thats maybe a foot long? Maybe I should snap a pic of it...
