if its the feed pipe it wont last with hose clips and copper bit in the middle, no chance. if its the return its fine as it isnt under pressure as such

the one that goes into the pump via a union fixing thingy, cant think of the word im looking for is the feed. the one hose clamped onto the side of the pump i think it is, thats return. if its that one, can sleeve and clamp it. if its the union attached one, need new line
