Hey all

While on the lift in the garage, I saw this leak from an aft engine oil connector. What the name of it? I guess I'll need a seal replacement but I want to see an exploded view diagram before taking it apart...

Will it be easier during an upcoming oil change?

 

Thanks in advance

Maybe you could look on 7zap and go by model year. The corrugated hose/cable cover looks like this millenium to me.

The first part missed me completely. I guess I have to be in the UK for that?

 

I do apologize though I thought I gave the model in my message. my bad.

It's a 1999 Mk3 1.6 AEE engine

 

Sorry, John Humphries is quiz show master for TV programme Mastermind.

 

AEE narrows the search 1999 even better. And I'm wrong it IS last millennium.

Can you see it on here?

Wow I think you're right

I was looking at that diagram and got the perspective wrong - thought it was depicted much higher

I'm checking some photos on google and matching it
