haha just some grips to pull the pipe off and it snapped :think: can i buy that part?

A new throttle body is about £300 :(

There are plenty of mk 1's being broken for spares at the mo, you may get lucky.

Nope - it's integrated into the TB.

If you're struggling for cash, you could just grind out an appropriate hole and put yourself a brass pipe fitting in...

Else I suspect it is a replacement TB.

+1 for drill and tapping a new thread then fitting a brass nipple. Any decent engineering shop will be able to do it for a few quid. Failing that just do it yourself, will probably work out more expensive i suppose. Taps are quite pricey these days, tap wrench, cutting fluid, drill bits etc..

Good luck!

Or blank it off its not needed anyway ;-)
