its a new pipe from the main agent, it is to short to fit between the filter can and the throttle body, its about 2cm short
is there a longer one for the 230.Cheers .Mike.

Hi, Mike,
I think you have been supplied the pipe for later cars with heater pipes collar on the throttle body.
You need the one for early cars. Sorry, can't look up the part # just now. Maybe Monday
