I am having some difficulty in tracing a filler pipe breather tank connection. I t doesn't seem possible to get a hold on this connection that sits on the top of the tank. The hose tail attached to the connector , has snapped when I dropped the tank down to weld the chassis.
Perhaps there is a remedy to repairing this. I have thought of gluing a pipe into the broken neck and gluing with an epoxy . Any suggestions please.
I will try and identify the part on this thread, give me strength!


How do I get a screen shot of a pic then copy on here please.

Ok it's the pipe with the pigtail on it , has anyone got one , not actually the pipe it's the connection to the tank .

Does the pigtail, (do you mean hose tail, what you push the hose over), screw into the tank or how is it fixed to the tank?

Hi it's the round mounting that fits the tank , it has a plastic horsetail on it which is snapped off it.
 
No sorry , that's the tank breather, it's the connector with the pipe that has a curl on it , hence the pigs tail . As I say the round connector in the very first pic shows that.
 
Every thing back in and working , managed to slide a pipe into each end and used epoxy to sela.
