Water inlet Aluminium bottom pipe has corroded away, has anyone a spare .No water pump on this engine, 1444cc LA10. The main section of the pipe is OK, just beyond the drain tap a big chunk is missing. Any assistance and advice very welcome. cheers Frenchy.01394283179.

Any chance of a photo?
If it's the pipe I think you are talking about I had a couple made from stainless steel a few years ago. I had priced up the necessary patterns but unfortunately it was far too expensive for the demand to recoup the money invested.

Thanks for the reply Marcel,yes I am certain it is the pipe you refer to. It seems to be a common problem and as a result spares are very scarce. I have managed to source one from a LA10 owner who has assisted me before with both parts and information. I am very grateful I do have some LA10 spares, anyone can contact me, I may be able to help. Cheers Frenchy
