Replacing overflow/breather tube thingy..

Hi again...

That little black tube with a 90 degree bend in it that comes off the side of the fuel filler (that you can see under the guard) seems to be old and cracked and i think this is leaking fuel as i go around left hand bends...

I remember AGES ago someone making a topic about making a replacement bit of pipe for this part, but i've just spent the best part of the last hour looking for it, with no luck.

What have the rest of you done?

Thanks! :kiss

Oh, and if you don't know, this is for a '71 type 3

Did you check if West Coast Metric make a replica of it? I thought I saw them on a suppliers stand last year, maybe Vintage V-dub?
