Default Name for this Z-hose/tube?

Anyone know the name for this pipe/tube/hose the red arrow is pointing to in the picture. Can't find anything about it on RAVE, parts websites or anywhere else.
It connects to the metal tube located above the coils that connect the two SAI valves. It has completely disintegrated and I have duct-taped it a lot, most of it is now tape and I believe it may have to be why my recently replaced bank 2 sensor 1 o2 sensor keeps throwing code. Need to replace it ASAP.
Thanks.

I don't have the exact name for it but just go to your local Rover Dealer parts dept. and they will know.

That goes to your air injection motor.

Mine was broken too.

take a chunk of it to the autoparts store.
Get radiator hose

Slip that black delicate hose into the radiator hose.
Use two clamps on each end.

Problem solved.
You are done.

Under $10 too.

I find it amusing that a dealer is selling that same part for $40.00 less than BA, they sure must have people convinced that the dealers always charge more than they do. Land Rover Parts - Land Rover Parts Center - Call (800) 574-9217 for Genuine Land Rover Parts and Accessories

Of course I've heard the same thing many times on this forum. Pays to comparison shop, the internet is a great tool for that.

Should have used Gorilla tape. It would even be the correct color! But since it's all messed up with the grey stuff, I'd say that jfall's got the right approach. $150 for a hose? Seriously? The thing only works for a few minutes after startup. That's nuts.
