    AC pipe routing

    I have just replaced the engine in my 2006 GU 3.0 Di.
    Unfortunately the mechanic moved the upper AC pipe, and when the engine went in, it was left hanging outside the air in pipe.
    It should be behind that pipe and attached with the fitted bracket to the block/head. I need to put it back where it belongs, need to show the AC tech.
    Not shown in my nissan manual
    Can anyone help with a photo of the original location and fitting?
    If you can help, and need to send a photo instead of posting to the forum. PM me and I will provide email or MMS address.
    Thanks in advance.

    Does this help? I don't own a 3.0 Di but I found these photos of one advertised on CarSales.

    Same problem I think. It seems easier to bend the AC pipe when removing and refitting the engine. There is a mount bracket on the pipe, and a threaded hole in the side of the engine. Sure it should go there as the pipe just floats around otherwise.
    Thanks for your help
