Which fuel pipe is this? If its from the tank to the filter, its rubber, so it must be the filler pipe ????

got a few in the lock up, they are prone to rust due to location and build up of mud behind against the body
sorry doesn't matter petrol or diesel only van or pickup, I have van ones

If you have a spare, if you don't sell it send it on and I'll get some stainless ones made.

currently in the process of breaking a doka so can send it over and any other useful bits which may be worth getting made up in stainless when i get them out simon, unless someone closer has one let us know Paul

Shouldn't be too hard should it?
The exhaust place I use should be able to spit them out.
Don't think I've ever had to replace one but I have seen plenty of rough ones.

FYI I have at the moment on at the machine shop, fog lamp brackets for GRP bumpers, laser cut stainless.
The syncro front bash plate thingy that a few people already have, the ally one.
WBX cylinder head tins - to be made in stainless.
