Breather Pipe alignment

[Dr H]

Always had this problem with my car and now the samcos have made it worse. It's no where near lining up and it is now just about impossible to get a the short peice of hose on it.

It used to be out of alignment a little and the hose coped with that but now it's impossible. Any suggestions? I'm considering a 90 dgree elbow and cutting the bottom pipe off at the top to make it fit.

Mine is a swine to get lined up. It doesn't help that there is no room to move it around either. When I fit my Samcos I'll be removing those pipes completely as I don't need them for my catch tank.

Alignment is made worse with the samcos as the small bit that sticks out of the MAF-Turbo hose to connect the pipe is straight rather than pitched up at an angle like the original.

I'm gonna get an elbow I think. Anyone know where I can get a 19mm elbow quickly? Without it the car is going to be off the road.

I would consider connecting the two ends with a "pigtail" shaped rubber tube piece, something similar to the spiral duct the tyre shops use for their compressed air application. Its reinforced with nylon or steel mesh.
