There is a 90 degree plastic fitting referenced PA66-GF30 on the top bleed tube on my 4.4l TDV8 that has cracked and subsequently leaking coolant. Trying to either source this part or if not replace it with a metal 90 degree fitting. Anyone know where I can find one of these plastic fitting or if not whether replacing it with a metal 90 degree will be a problem?

Aren't those barbs facing the wrong way... or am I being daft....  Pete

They do appear to be!

However, they seem to be facing the same way on the broken bit of plastic next to it. 2002 4.6 Vogue SE - Alveston Red with Lightstone Leather

Yeah, I spent ages looking at both of them.... weird.... Pete

I realised it was wrong after I'd made it but couldn't be bothered to remake it as it's only a bleed tube. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322)

Thanks for this and looks like the one.
No problem it seems not to have to replace the original item here which Ive been told will take 5 weeks to source from the UK.
It actually broke from contact with the rubber engine cover which I had only just adjusted to sit level on the top of the engine. Very brittle fitting. Must have been ready to go and so happy for it to have happened in the driveway and not out on the road.
There are plenty of metal 90 degree fittings out there that I can source.
