Heads up - Britpart Elbow Pipe Failure

Hey Guys. Just a public service announcement. I put in a Britpart Coolant Elbow Pipe when I did my head gaskets a couple of months ago, and it has failed.
Also, I got a Genuine from the Dealership for less than a genuine advertised online.
Should have kept my original, but it had a nasty ding where it married to the hose, and I did not want leaks.
It has developed a crack at the weld where the bracket to the alternator bracket is.
I am growing increasingly disillusioned with Britpart.

I'll be avoiding them in the future as well.

Back in my early days I ordered a URO parts coolant reservoir... it looked like it came from Toys"R"Us
Britpart is a life saver for a lot of parts, I probably buy 80% britpart. Things like seals, hoses, and o-rings I stick to genuine... as there is a very noticeable difference, especially with seals.
