Thumbs up Oil Separator PVC hose fitting Plastic to Brass for $2.39 = Priceless

Hello,
I have seen various people on the forum break this little plastic barb/threaded fitting that screws in the top manifold. I thought I would show the same plumbing fitting available at Home Depot or any other hardware store. The hose that runs to this fitting routes to the passenger's side rocker cover and pulls vacuum. The piece unscrews, even if broken off, and can be replace with this fitting shown. The brass fitting is about 3/16" shorter, but it will not matter, when you tighten the hose clamp on it.

Brass 3/16" barb to 1/4"MIP $2.39 Home Depot = priceless
Plastic Land Rover piece $14.99 dealer price

Be careful the Land Rover Gods tend to get mad when you use a superior part and spend less money at the same time.

Yeah its been to hot to work on my Rover. So I settled for the little things that look cool.
I added some Teflon tape to the threads, as there was some on the original plastic fitting.
