Right guys the part in question looks like some sort of breather pipe for possibly crankcase ventilation? It is the pipe that comes from some sort of valve block on the front of the inlet manifold up to the rocker cover. It has a large round black cap 3/4 up the pipe. My pipe is split and the ends are crimped so I would assume you have to buy the complete lot? I've copied in a pic, it's on the right hand side, sorry I can't put an arrow in I'm no computer wizz

Is it the funnel shaped piece? If so it's just an empty container with some steel wool inside.

Lets try some coordinates.
Is it the piece that is seen where these two "lines" intersects?
Line A, from the bend in the strut brace to the black fastener between the air intake pipe and the bonnet catch
Line B, from the drivers side strut mount to the steel band that holds the air filter.

If theres wire wool inside that'll be an oil catch tank then, albeit a small one!
