[SmiffyMan]

As I was getting about changing my rocker gaskets, I accidently knocked the plastic elbow piece which enters the plenum on the right hand side, which is the angled coupler for the vacuum pipe which comes from the brake servo. Only £3.00 from Vauxhall but try and get hold of one! The Vauxhall guys say it gets quite warm and therefor gets brittle with age.

To be honest smiffy, you'd be easier buying a complete pipe from a scrapper. seemingly the ends are a sod to change

You think that end is difficult to get hold of? Try the other end that goes into the servo, particularly the one with 2 vac pipe connections.
