    WOW, sorry man, bad luck!

    No I donn’t know what could be the cost to fix it. As it is only pipe, should be much but as per the picture, it looks like the the pipe is broken from the vacuum pump, no?? If so, and you will sell the car in a couple months, before bying a new pump, check if you can just weld properly a tube on the pump and then connect the pipe to it…

    You should have received the link I passed you from Brian’s ussual garage in Sharjah, no?

    Best luck! If I can help you with something, give me call! ๐Ÿ˜‰
