Eventually decided to pay attention to the e21, wanted to see if it starts but realised there was a hose missing..

Can anybody share some light into what is??

Thanks

Just a simple hose, see pic below. But without it it's not likely to start. Don't have a P/N though.

Looks like part of the oil breather system, if you just want to see if it starts and runs, plug the stub on the metering head.

When you find a replacement, make sure it's a proper oil resistant hose or it'll probably turn soft and you'll be back to square one.

Thanks for the help!
