Default Broken Norma connector on XKR replacable alone?

On our 2002 XKR there is a Norma connector on the left side of the engine bay. There is a T built into it that goes to the EGR valve. Well, the T-broke. Part of the Norma connector is tied to a hose to the coolant t-stat housing. The broken part is removable from the hose as well as it disconnects the male part connected to the other hose that goes to by the fire wall. The male part doesn't easily come off the other hose. I have no parts manual, so does anyone know if I can replace the female/T part of the norma connector alone with our purchasing the whole hose?

Silver, check out the Parts Links on the XK8 FAQ thread (top of the forum), if there's a part number attached to your 't', you can secure it. There's two very good documents there to search thru.

I needed to get is back running by Monday so I went to Lowes. They have a brass T which was almost perfect. The only problem was the rear hose was smaller than the front. So, the front fit perfect, so did the small t-hose... the rear was a bit of a stretch. Used some hose lube got it on. Two hose clamps just for piece of mind secures it.
