Default Where does this go

Time to play everyone's favorite Jaguar game - where did this part come from???

I've got a 2014 XFR, first up is the coolant reservoir. I can tell the "mount" on the left has been broken as it wobbles around as I lift it. Can someone take a picture of what this used to look like?




Next is a hose to the rear passenger side (NA market) that has a nipple that looks like it was meant to go into something. It currently slides freely up and down that tubing.



Any help would be appreciated.

This is what my 5.0 NA one looks like and I think yours would be the same.

Well then... looks like half of mine has snapped off. Thank you much Six.

Also found the other have for the hose clip, there's a female on the much larger tube below it. Mine was far too forward and would not move because of a thicker protective tube. Unclipped and moved to the rear quarter and the two are now happily mated.

It seems a more common problem than I thought. I think someone has repaired yours in the past ?

Ha! Good find. A case of poor materials engineering if I've ever seen one. Luckily enough the broken bit fell out of the undertray while I was performing an oil change so I'm drawing a new one up in CAD as we speak.
