Whats this called ?

[Silvervanman]

Had the radiator and cooling system stripped down, new radiator in ,new hoses and clips but failed to notice that the thingy that joins them together has sprung a leak ! This thingy i refer to sits down low picks up a 35mm pipe hose from the bottom drivers side of radiator,feeds two black hoses, a 35mm and a 22mm which then cross to the passenger side ,then dissappears somewhere under engine. Apparently alot more corroded than i gave it credit for. Anyone know what its called ,and where i can get one.
Thanks in advance.SVM

ACT sell stainless water pipes for the Cerbera, worth getting if yours are badly corroded.

Thanks for that simon, got one from neil @ tvr car parts, and only £48 plus vat and delivery. Fitted tonight and working ok. But unfortunately F**ker has sprung a petrol leak from one of the two pipes coming up at front of engine. Wasn't leaking before i started working on her and wasn't anywhere near the pipes so wondering what has caused this sudden leak. Glad my last new optional extra was a fire extinguisher. Hope i never need to find out if its effective !!! Does anyone know if i disconnect the fuel line where it passes through the passenger bulkhead @ header tank will the petrol from tank come out or only when fuel pump is working ? Dont want to spray engine bay with petrol. Also looked back through some old receipts i got with car, it appears my car was in for a cooling system pressure test and flush about 2000/2001 and was recorded as guage overreading by 15 deg !!! So that might explain my panicking. And a pinhole in old radiator would explain the steam. Seems there is always a reason for everything. Thanks. SVM.
