[Vwdiesel] More Dasher?

[The President]

Yes inspection holes are a good idea.  Are you sure that the soft bit of 
hose is not purposeful and helps to absorb vibrations of engine. Imagine if 
the pipe actually hardened; how long would it last that way? I'm just 
guessing of course...
Crud on the aluminium pipe on head might be the source of a leak there. One 
of the nastiest places to work on in the Quantum/Dasher set up in my 
oppinion...
