Bingo! The ~40cm pipe snakes its way from the temp sensor flange back to the heater control valve. It has rubber hose on each end and the bolt securing the mount was beneath the tube near the back of the engine. The bolt was farther back and down from where I expected a connection to be and it would have been easier/quicker to see if I had an inspection mirror handy! Gotta get one!
Looks the same as part 034 121 071 for the KX engine (and others) but even that one is NLA! I might make a trip to the dealership to see what they say.
Thanks to Smitty and Huw!

Actually I think that it's a nipple that is held in place by
a single bolt underneath the "pipe". one bolt is sufficient
because there is an "O" ring on the end that is in the
block. It's not welded to the block. Feel under the pipe for
the head of the bolt. There is a one sided flange under there.
