I just noticed where my Overflow hose goes too. The TD42T one goes to the cap in the middle. This one is more to the drivers side

Car was originally 3 litre

yes to your question mechanics have a habit of leaning on them and breaking them off but an easy fix

Yeah definately the 3ltr setup as mentioned. Stupid me got rid of all this when doing the TD conversion, only to find out I could have save a bit of coin using the ZD rad setup...
