Either that or get some silicone hose from samco ( they do flexible lengths and also straigts/bends ethc ) you may need to join a couple of bits justing hose joiner ( www.revotec.co.uk )
Or ask samco if they can make the part from a pattern.
TT

Thanx Guys,
Emailed Fordparts, they dont have any either, i could order one but they did say it could take months to arive as ford have to get a batch made.
Tried to get one made in silcone but thats not possible because of odd shape.
Made one up myself out some old rad hoses and some 22mm & 28mm fittings.
seem to work and the cars back on the road..
