05, Vauxhall engine, has broken pipe in engine bay - Petel
Wagon R with the Vaux engine. Large rubber pipe runs across front of engine, then changes to aluminium and turns downward through 90 deg, running down beside the dipstick tube, to couple into the front of the engine block. At least, I think it is the engine block because it is not possible to get direct line of sight to this point.

Pipe has broken off where it meets the block and a matching ragged edge can be felt but not clearly seen. Believe this pipe to be something to do with the aircon.

Has anyone seen this before please?
Thank you

Yes, sounds like a broken aircon pipe to the compressor.

Thank you for the reply, I suspected as much and presume that this is a known fault. Appreciate the confirmation
