Samco Part #tb178 Header Hose, The Right Hose?

[Guest ollie]

A while back thought my car might have head gasket issues, it was dropping coolant. It was going to get a compression test, but never did as I traced the leak to a couple of small splits in the pipes and small issue at the thermostat cover. I did a temp fix on the bottom pipe from the header tank (got the remote metal tank on a '93 1.9), but has split again (and on further inspection the header tank bubbles, and the mayo keeps coming back so I'm not sure i'ts not head gasket after all - car runs so well though???)

 

Anyway, Peugeot want £40 + VAT for a new pipe, but my question is...is the SAMCO Part #TB178 Header pipe a direct replacement. I ask as I can't find a single pic of it on the net, but I do see a hose in their 8 pipe kit that looks like the one I need, but there are no part numbers to be able to say for sure.

 

It's the pipe on the bottom of the header tank, probably 3cm diameter (external), going down to the offside of the block. Anyone know?

Thanks Baz, I'd seen that on ebay, full kit though. That link only appears to do full kits too. Would you know if they can supply the individual pipes? Thanks again.
