Noticed some oil on the floor , took to Garage for a once over and they said they couldn’t find anything and it’s usual.

So had another look and found a nylon pipe slowly oozing oil but just lying there. Any ideas where it should be attached to?!

Next to the large pipe going onto the bottom of the air box there is a small metal pipe.
The hose is pointing in the correct direction,put your hand under the air box and you will feel it.
It has probably perished,that's why its come off.

Part of the breather system.

THankyou very much, the metal pipe looks very much like a spigot so I think of and when the pressure builds up it just flies off ! That can’t be right ?!

Replace the pipe. It's perished at the end,that's why it came off.

Also I see in your photo the timing belt cover is missing.
