I think I got the kit from DMGRS but I'd have to check that so I'm casting no aspersions.

I remember I saw a thread recently regarding o rings that were pink in colour, could this be the same issue?

I assume these should not be fitted when I get the stat changed next week.


In terms of auto correct, throw it in the bin, not the parts bin, but the refuse one

Buy a genuine pipe, the one you have pictured there is a cheap and nasty one.

If you decide to go ahead and fit the pipe you have, the replacement o ring is a CDU3858, I personally wouldn't fit it though.
