I've got a leaking 'octopus' return pipe on my 89 16rs right near the pipe manifold below the front height corrector.
I might have disturbed it changing a suspension pipe there.
Can anyone recommend who to purchase a replacement assembly from for quality and price please. I appreciate cost and availability might be a lot different than in 2016
Thanks

Re: Octopus Replacement
There's this on eBay, not sure if it's what you need, not cheap either.

Re: Octopus Replacement
Thanks Panky.
That one states for power steering which mine doesn't have.
I think Chevronics are remanufacturing them and say compatibile with all apart from 4x4.
They do a bundle with the other height corrector return pipes.
I watched a great clip on changing them posted by up and down who recommends I changing both sets.
They are very expensive though so will have to wait till pay day next month.
