Re: anyone know which bit this is
It's the bleed point for the heater matrix towards the rear of the engine.

Re: anyone know which bit this is
Yes, and the cleverly designed cap likes to be dropped down the back of the engine to find a nice resting place under the steering rack or somewhere and being non-metallic can't even be picked up with a magnet

Re: anyone know which bit this is
But all it uses is a normal tyre valve cap, so no biggie

Re: anyone know which bit this is
Bailes1992, thanks very much for the info and the diagram. Trem1 kindly posted my video here for me. Looking at the diagram, I dont recognize any of the parts..... except of course the broken bit that was in my hand in the vid and has a red circle around it in the diagram. Where exactly should I be looking to solve my problem? In behind the engine block, between the engine block and the passenger compartment? Or do I need to get under the car? If I can identify some of that diagram, I'll be able to work it out from there. Cheers.
Re: anyone know which bit this is
Thats the part that plugs into the Heater matrix, (bulk-head ) iguess,
