So iv had my golf Gti 1.8t for about 6 months and I have the fault code 17705 so iv found a split pipe but I have also found that the previous owner has bodged a copper pipe and t piece where the silicon hoses should go. I want to replace the hole lot with the proper hoses but not sure what they are called can anyone help?
Here is a picture

All of that pipework looks to have been messed with, can you post a picture showing more of the engine bay? Also what is your engine code?
The hose coming off the rocker cover is just a breather pipe, silicone replacements can be had for about £30 off ebay but you need to make sure the rest of the pipework is ok before buying it.

Yh looks a mess doesn't it :( it's a AUM mate, il get a few pictures now mate thanks for the help btw I'm new to this car

Has the SAI been plumbed into the breather system?!
-
I'm not sure what SAI is bud

Is there still the 'hockey puck' fitted? It's fitted behind the diverter valve and should look like this:

The breather hose with the red tape wrapped around it is common for splitting and should look like this:

Yours looks like it's been bodged instead of replaced, this is the hose that you need if you want to sort it:

But it looks like the pipe it joins to has been changed as well. Can you take the lower engine cover off and get a picture of the corrugated pipe that goes underneath it?

It's all a mess! I'm wondering if there is a catch can hidden away under the lower engine cover somewhere...
-
I don't think there is a hockey puck I will go and check, il also get a picture with the lower engine case off, what's the pipe called under the one I need because I'm assuming I will need that one as well haha, just what I need on Christmas :(
-
If it's missing it's just called a breather tube I think.

If it's the one highlighted in the picture above it's part number: 06A 103 213 BG

Yeah, to me it looks like you need a new breather hose like the one I linked on eBay and the other hose to replace that corrugated one.
Other option would be to fit a catch can and ditch a lot of the PCV system, take a look here for a guide:

I would personally replace them all, I got mine from a company called Creation motor sport and I cannot fault them.
There service is exceptional and the parts are brilliant.
I also have an AUM and I managed to buy all the parts from them cheaper than any other named brand.
Here is a few pics of them.

It's the crankcase breather and pcv lower breathers that he needs, I've already linked to the crankcase one on eBay.
Personally I wouldn't bother with the boost hoses and tip.

Thanks guys appreciate the help :) hopefully this will sort a few problems then onto the next problem, have a good Christmas :)

The TIP isn't the best from what I've seen, looks very restrictive

I don't know if it's just me being stupid but that PVC lower is that the correct pipe because it has a split off to 2 sections where as I was told to get the same part number but bg at the end this one has ak at the end is this still fine?

I must admit it was a complete bugger to fit but I have noticed a difference with it. Alot less restrictive than oem bit ovi a forge one would be better.
