Unhappy dreaded PO455: parts needed for repair please

This is my first post so please bear with me.
I own a 2001 XK8 and I have the ODC code 455. Our local jaguar dealer in orlando, FL. Collier jaguar have done a smoke test and have suggested that the " canister close valve, passenger side, leaking and the cross over pipe, from valve to other side leaking" they want $693 for the parts and labour.
Could anyone please tell me what parts are required, part numbers would be wonderful and perhaps somewhere on the internet or this form? where I may be able to buy these parts. Collier state that the parts are around $500 and labour around $200. I know a local Jaguar garage that will install the parts for a reasonable sum.
Thank you very much for all your help.

Best Regards,
David Packwood

Same thing happened to my car, its more common than you think. I don't know if I paid for this out of pocket or was a warranty item. Will have to check that.
