I need one of these vacuum connectors as mine has a slight crack, Are they available at VX if so do they have a part number or are they readily available somewhere else? I've had a look but can't find anything.

Are we looking at the bagpipe connector to/from the vacuum switch? I am not clear which connector you seek.

As in the picture..
Inside the highlight circle the rubber vacuum piece, Not sure what its proper name is hence why I thought it best to add a picture. It doesn't seem to be affecting performance but it's on its last legs.

As said TB been one this for past two weeks, lots of clinkys in that thread,.

EPC isn't very clear on this sort of thing. It could/might possibly be 90572322. If they're still available they'll probably be in a pack of 50, cost £1 each, and the dealer will try to make you buy the whole pack. If you want to take the risk fair enough, but I suspect most of us would be down the scrap yard for a good look-see, and get the most suitable part from there.
These rubber elbows are used in Carltons and perish for a past time - causing all sorts of issues. The ones I got were off the ends of the vacuum advance pipes for old proper Austin Minis. A good motor factors should stock the sort of thing.

There's no definitive answer here as far as I can see though.

If I at least knew if it was a 3.0mm or 3.5mm etc.. That would be helpful :y

Ordered a few different types/sizes and found this one to be best, It fits like a glove and appears to be of decent quality with plenty of flex. :y
