Question regarding the style of hose clamp that were OEM for the brake booster hose (spring wire ring?). was there a smaller version of this clamp used on the three (3) hoses that attached to the T piece of the PCV valve hose AND also where the two (2) hoses join at the inlet manifold? (XU1) or are the ones currently fitted to my car (see photo) correct?

Yes Mark, what you have is correct. The pcv clamps look like that & the spring clamp on the brake vacuum hose, providing the spring tension is good, re use them. Gary.

Your booster hose is incorrect though, as you already know. Originally quite textured like the pcv, if you find some, let me know, as i haven't been able to find course style hose anywhere.

Thanks Gary. What about two hoses that branch off from the 'T' piece down to the inlet manifold. What sort of clamp is used there. Are they the same as mine?
