So as is customary my turbo hose split and so i lost power above 2000 rpm.So i got some nice shiny silicone hoses to replace. Whilst replacing the offending pipe (the short one to the right of the temp? sensor) I noticed that the temp sensor ( or is it something else?) had one of the wires that had become disconnected from the plug. I suspect its been like this a long time (possibly before i brought it) and haven't noticed any obvious problems. Its snapped though where the wire meets the plug (female end) as per:

So i can try and bodge some wire around the plug (less than ideal) or buy a new plug but can I find one? or maybe try and solder but there's not much to solder to. Is the plug a standard size I can find online?
Secondly has anybody got any tips on removing the awkard jubilee clip on the left hand turbo hose.
Any help appreciated: I can post some picsif it helps when its daylight.
