smokeyjon,
Sorry that I do not have a spare flue vent, but thought this link may help you.
IIRC it is just a bit of aluminium tubing, (with a flange I know) to seal it against water ingress, and gasses too, and a little cover plate to make it look pretty and stop wasps nests and perhaps the odd chap relieving himself....... :oops:

Flue vent

Post by spareuser »

Hi, I had a similar problem and had real problems finding flexi tube to go from fridge 'lazy t' to vent on side of van, nobody seems to sell inch and a quarter flexi tube anymore!

the solution was aluminium hoover pipe found in a skip that was 32mm internal diameter, bent in a kind of s shape. I had to make 2 bungs for each end and fill with sand whilst on the pipe bender to pevent kinking the pipe.

Hopefully this should last some time.

you can still buy frigde vent kits from electrolux but I have no idea how much they are!
