Brake Servo Vacuum Line

Brake Servo Vacuum Line
While installing a new alternator in my 2001 DII (Bosch), we managed to break the Brake Servo Line where it enters the engine. I ordered a new one from Atlantic British, but looking at the picture, I'm concerned that I'm missing the valve/plug/whatever on the end of the hose that goes into the engine.
I think it was red.
That plug is the part that broke and it looks like it isn't included in the hose that comes from AB. Can anyone take a picture of theirs so I know what I'm looking for? Also, is that something Land Rover specific, or can I get that sort of plug at any auto parts store?

As long as you ordered the right hose it will have the plug integrated into the correct end. Its really easy on the D1 and I think I remember seeing it wasn't that different on my D2 maybe just bent different. As long as you didn't break the plug at the servo end you're golden. I bought the thing at the dealer though because it was the same price and I could talk to them about it.
If worse comes to worse you could rig something up using hose clamps and a rubber hose coupler. Just make sure the vacuum doesn't collapse the coupler.
