Default breather pipework

Hi im looking to find out what size the breather pipework is on a 1997 uk turbo 2000?

fitting an oil catch tank and it has both 10mm and 15mm options, and want to get stainless braided hoses to run to it, just need to know whether i need 10mm or 15mm


thanks
Jamie

Normal garden hose size.
Or if you're going for braided its -10. Mine's all braided. If you're cutting the braided yourself make sure you use a jubilee clip where you're cutting it other wise it gets messy very quickly

got 15mm braided with a few reducers so all sorted

looked at a few engines, some were 12mm and some 15mm so just went for the largest and reduced it down.

All done and good

thanks
