I think the carbon can can (you don't see that very often hehe) be in the driver's side wing, or in front of the radiator.

It's not the carbon can it's hard to explain really it's roughly the same area as where the steering UJ comes out on the drivers arch. But on the passenger arch in this area i have a what looks like a drainage pipe. The pipe is only the diameter of washer pipe siliconed in position but now loose .

Doh! When you said drain pipe, I imagined something the width of a drainpipe! (I am a twerp). Sorry, can't help you with the other pipe thingy.

Thanks. I just have this feeling though it's going to one of those take the dash out jobs when I eventually find out where it suppose to connect

It could be the air-con drain (if you have air-con fitted of course ).
