Hi Richard The pipe with the one way valve has an aluminium heat shield over it and goes to
one of the solenoids on top of the inlet manifold. If you need to Know exactly which one PM me with your e-mail address and I will send Photo

Hi Anna I only know this because mine was brittle and broke so I replaced it with a one way valve from a fish tank .
