Vagcat down - part number needed

Hi all - Vagcat is down (at least it's not accepting my username) and I'm looking for a part number.

Van is an X-reg diesel, formerly 1.6 but now fitted with a 1Y. The coolant pipe that sits at the top of the engine (4 way, connecting the head, pipe to the rad, header tank, and a blanked off branch which once fed I don't know what) is the one I'm after. If anyone has a part number, or is able to log onto Vagcat for me, I'd be very grateful. I've checked Brickwerks to see if they do a replacement, and aside from the glitzy (but rather pricey!!) silicone set I can't see one.

After all the aggro I had with replacing the front to back coolant pipes a couple of months ago I thought I'd done with the cooling pipe issues!!

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer.

Ouch!! Thanks very much Bob. At that price, I think I'll do a temporary repair with a short length of 32mm steel pipe and a couple of jubilee clips, and wait for a secondhand one to come up for sale here or on Ebay.

Thanks again buddy :ok
