right people got a nice simple question for you...I have discovered that after running for a bit my coolant leaks...it seems to be coming from the hose that leads from the rad to round the bk of the block on c16xe...the plastic pipe it slides on to wobbles a reasonable amount, am I right in just suspecting the jubilee wants tightening? or could the plastic chunk be split or broken off? it wobbles but returns so I believe it has a small amount of give...just searching for a worse case scenario, thanks in advance for tedious question

the plastic pipe wobbles? if thats the case its not bolted to the block correct (am i right) im sure it bolts to one of the gearbox bolts? i have the rail and a newish hose (the 1 that goes from the pipe to the water pump) if you find you need one? also it could be the heater hose thats leaking? they are in the same area so id check them 2!
