had the same problem last week, the pipe had just split tho, right near where it bends round, i just took the jubalee clip off, sawed the end of the pipe where it was split, then put the clip back on and it was long enough to go back on without being stretched to go back on, tightend the clip and the job was a good'un  can you not try that or is it too far back the split?

The number is 90410150
Getting the pipe off and back on again is a total pig of a job on the matrix as theres hardly any clearance!
