Help with Part Name
Hi Folks,
My mechanic friend and I got the head gaskets replaced on the new to me (three weeks now...) 2002 Discovery. Once the coolant system built up pressure, we discovered another leak that was not there before, since with blown head gaskets, neither of us drove it enough to get the system up to pressure. Now there is a leak, at the back of the engine, on the passenger side. My mechanic is calling the leak at the "heater bypass hose" and it needs to be replaced. Can someone tell me what this part is, by name and maybe a picture/listing of one one Ebay?
Thanks, as always - we are closer o getting this Rover out on a real test drive.

You can also install the fancy clear 5/8" coolant hoses to pimp out your engine. lol

Thanks for all the replies folks.
So, I sent a pic of PCH500040 last night to my friend, and that isn't the busted hose. I found an entire kit of hoses on ebay and I will send him a picture of that and see if one of those hoses is the correct hose that is leaking. I know its not a simple 5/8" heater hose, although I wasn't under the truck when he saw what was leaking, so I can describe it. We'll get it figured out. We are still fixing issues that came with the truck from the PO, including a weeping rubber freeze plug and an exhaust leak that we discovered yesterday.
