When i last did a breather pipe i replace all with silicone and used a t piece to get away with not using the y piece.
I can have a look tommorow at work see if ive got a usable y piece if you want

I chickened out and just bought replacement silicone from Creation Motorsport - they sell on ebay.

@OP yits likely to have more in the breather system about to go -the hoses corrode from the inside out -they start to feel very soft and baggy when they are corroded. non return valve at the other end of the split pipe is probably not in a great state
