HI Can anyone please tell me where this component fits.
Part no: AJ84880.

After the dreaded heater house leak, i removed the inlet manifold and never took any notes or photos, ( doh what a mistake) i have replaced the tower and both heater pipes and used some better clips than the std spring type.

Now after the rebuild i,am about to fit the throttle body and after sorting the various pipes can,t figure this one.

Easy-peasy. The long part goes from the front of the drivers side cam cover (special connector plugs into the part-load breather orifice) to the throttle body driver's side (the pipe "t") and the part with the hose goes to the emissions part on the bulkhead in the center.

This applies to LH drive US spec cars- for you across the pond it would be passenger.

I had a bad fuel leak from the fuel pressure regulator valve near to the fuel rail, it was my own fault because i never secured the retaining bracket correctly.
So now i have the flooding problem typical of these v8's, better than the situation yesterday with fuel pouring out onto the ground.

So we are getting there, thanks for your help and concern, you were spot on with the pipe work many thanks.
