Any one will fit off a 2.6, 3.2 or a post 98 3.0.

This will cause awful running as it will let un-metered air in.

Plenty of people in the parts section who will have one (loo knee is breaking a 3.0)

If you've got a bit of gaffer tape to temporarily 'fix' the leak, you'll find out.  :)

I was beaten to the Gaffer tape idea, even clingfilm would do to see if it made a difference.
