Leaking hose

Hi to everyone,
Took the Bongo and four mates to NEC Bike Show yesterday and the van ran great but this morning saw leaking water under her. Looks to be a split hose which comes from the centre of the engine on the drivers side, underneath the seat and twists down to another connection. Anyone know what it is and can I get a replacement ?
Thanks in anticipation, Bill

Hi Bill, From your description I think you will find this is the pipe that runs from just above the starter motor to the rear heater inlet, its part no. is 61-213 Part Name Hose no. 3.

The pipe Haydn has suggested is the main outlet pipe from the head to the radiator top hose.

Hope this helps.

Id agree with socket set sue it will be the one to the rear heater I had a problem with it a short while ago got my new hose from Bongobits.

Snap, same thing happened to me, not easy to spot either, was a fine pinhole only visible when engine was hot and running.
