Has it got front fog lights? Seem to remember reading somewhere that these have breathers... have you tried tracing them back?

Thanks bilge rat
that explains the one I found when changed the Fuel pressure regulater hooked over the heater pipes.

The ones I was orginally on about were fog light breathers but they are no longer there as I now no longer have the Valence, chopped it off after it split, now have no fog lights :grin:
