Any chance you can tell me where the left hand rigid oil cooler pipe is clipped to something solid. None of my pictures caught it and I've forgotten. I'm hoping you don't tell me that I have to drill and tap the chassis, 'cos the engine's in and mainly connected up. Custom bracket from the bottom engine mount nut will be the workaround if you do!

I'll have a look at mine tomorrow and let you know, unless someone beats me to it.

That would be great. I'm becoming convinced that there must be a bracket that I've mislaid, most likely fitting onto the bottom flexible mount bush stud.

Oh good, an excuse to show off one of the more successful things from the last 48 hours. My oil pipe support bracket. Freehand, none of this cad and cardboard malarkey...

The left hand end is under the bottom engine mount nut and all is well. Thanks for offering though!

I hope these help. The pipe appears to clip to the engine mount on the chassis
