Next task will be to insert a bung into the inlet manifold hole - about 15mm ID. Then fix a long hose to the male portion of the plastic right angled connector - about 9.5mm ID. All done by feel with subsequent verification via the mirror!

I need a beer cheers

Well done for getting it off. Surprised you needed to lever it off, but whatever worked is good. I found the OD of the inlet manifold connection to be around 12-13mm. I used this 13mm ID hose to make my connections and it was a very slightly loose fit, needing a hoseclip to make it tight and secure. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07NPH92J5?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
