In this picture where its circled in yellow , there is sealant on the end of the pipe where someone has bodged it . It attaches to a plastic pipe to a vacuum . The plastic part of the vacuum has been snapped off  :( So need to know what the vacuum part bit is called so i can replace it .

You are not trying hard enough ;)

Rear multi ram actuator doesn't operate until about 6000 rpm IIRC :-\

Front at 3000 rpm, rear at 4000 rpm :y

You'll notice once it's plugged back in ;D
