no its the intake pipe from the forge fmic kit, since having my ko3s fitted the dv and breather pipes were getting a little cramped and it looked cack so i just brought some 25mm x 1meter of flexible hose £12(ebay) + x1 25mm 90degree pipe joiner 50p (B&Q) better than paying forge the £100 they wanted for the kit
