It would be a big help if someone could confirm where the lower of the two pipes finishes up on the passenger side of the vehicle please. I initially thought it ends up screwed into the pas pump itself, but now I'm not so sure and its a bugger to trace its course.

Also, does anyone have a part number for the lower pipe? If I attempt a repair and that fails I'd like to know where I can get the part if I can't get one through here.

Thanks again,
Graham

The same pipe has gone on my 2.2 TDI.  The garage said it was no longer available and will be replacing it with generic pipe.

Looks like it goes to the reservoir.

Sorry, don't know why I thought yours was a diesel but think they end up in the same place.  :y

The pipes go from the steering box along the chassis rails,across the front then up the chassis rails on the other side to the resovoiar and pump. It's a bit awkward to post.

Correction. 

The pipe is metal and they tried cutting out the corroded bit and replacing it with braided hose but the hose burst.  They then fitted in a short section of copper pipe.

That being said Mrs Google quickly found flexible pipe capable of withstanding 3250 psi (224 bar) - see High Pressure Flexible Hose - annular
