no it hasnt changed shape..

on a valver its at the front of the manifold under a plastic thing that has the spark plugs leads running through it..

at a guess on the 8v it may be situated to the rear of the throttle body and plug in to the manifold around there?

cheers
hope you have your isv problems sorted now
i think it must have had some sh!te in it but cleared once the engine was to temp
the weather temp drop might have been the cause after being quite warm today and then dropping tonight
if i can find it i think i'll take it off for a clean
anyway cheers again
