It's 4mm ID all the way, if we're on about the same line it goes to a nipple on the underside of inlet manifold

On mine the hose from the top of the valve runs down to the inlet, the one from the side of the valve runs to the pipe you are referring to, I think that is 6mm ID, not 100% sure though.

You must of removed your metal tube that connects your dv to the inlet manifold. Its bolted to your engine with one rubber pipe off it to the inlet manifold and on the other end of the metal tube a rubber pipe to the top of the dv.
