Question Brake Booster Vacuum Pipe XK8

Just found a broken pipe that runs from the Brake Booster (Servo) to the throttle body induction elbow. The broken plastic pipe-end is still in the elbow, sticking out about 2cm. Anyone know how to remove this and where to obtain a new vacuum pipe for a XK8 1997.

Is it Item 11 in this diagram?



If so, it's the Brake Vacuum Pipe - P/N MJA5910AC

Thank you for the reply. Its not this part of the pipe, there is a connector at the end of the pipe (11) in the diagram, and its the pipe that then runs to the throttle body and actually connects to the induction elbow. Do you have a Pt No, for this item please.

Post Brake Booster Vacuum pipe

Resolved the broken pipe issue by having a new connector machined to fit the throttle body elbow. Then going to use a standard 9mm flexible pipe to connect back to the original broken vacuum pipe that runs back to the brake booster (servo) thank you for the booster diagram

I have the same problem on an XJ* booster line. Same part number. What kind of fitting did you have made. Pic?
Thanks
