Need help on a 172 !

[Hunty2009]

Hi Guy's

this may sound like a stupid question but my 172 appears to have a burst coolant pipe, the pipe is the thick pipe coming out of the bulkhead does anyone know where i can get this part to replace? unsure of the actual part name to be able to order it?

i know its a bland question just thought some of you boffins would know

Thanks

It's the long hose that goes to the front of the engine close to the water pump and I think it only comes as a set. Somewhere like Forge and SFS sell theirs in pieces with joiners but not sure if they sell the hoses separately or as a set. A lot of people buy Samco hoses when the original ones break. Getting that pipe off can be a pain as it has a special connector (squeeze it, turn it, push it in and pull - in theory, I just cut it off instead when I had to).
