Default Drivers Side AVCS oil feed line

Does anyone know where to get hold of one of these in the UK?
I can order from Japan but a couple of weeks delivery which is a bit much really but I might have to if i cant get one though.
Its for a JDM Hawk Spec-C but should be the same as a V7/8/9 2.0l one but believe the 2.5 ones are different?



Thanks, Gaz.

2.5 ones are totally different, they have banjo feed on top of the head not at the rear like yours.
On race engines we replace this pipe with Goodridge -4 braided pipe & fittings as they have a tendency to fail by fracturing, then causing a fire.

If your really stuck I have some used ones about you can have.

Yep sounds a bit like mine, lol, Has a small pin hole above the rear banjo just below the bend...I could fix it but would rather replace for a good one for the price and outcome of a failure...Any ideas where to locate one?

I have just had a look at the ones I have, they have a small amount light corrosion in places, mostly the front of the pipe, but should be ok.

PM me your details.

Your not wrong about those fittings failing and causing a fire
Only yesterday my car very nrly went up in smoke when the solid metal pipe (stupid design subaru btw)
Decided to break dumping oil over up pipe

Luckily flames went out quickly and the damage is a rather scorched rear bumper !!

Now fitted a flexi stainless feed so won't ever happen again
