LHM tank pipe and filter housing

Hi all, further to the post in the hydraulic section, I need to replace the LHM tank central plastic core that fits all the rubber hoses and houses the LHM filters. Mine has a crack in it that's drawing air at the HP pump suction pipe.

Not fussed if it's the correct black XM type or the white BX type (might actually be better and less brittle than the black?)

Any help greatly appreciated - it's my daily car!

Are you sure it has a crack?

Yes, it's visible if you apply a little pressure to the surface but otherwise it is near impossible to see as the crack fits together perfectly. It it there though and if you press it a bit with the engine running the pipe fills up with bubbles until you release it - it is definately drawing air through the crack. Might not be common or ever heard of before but it has occurred here!

Anyway, if no one can help with this part I'll be forced to either borrow the one from the CX or fit a pipe extension down into the LHM tank to keep it healthy until I can replace it.

There was a new XM tank centre listed until recently.
If I find a link I will add it.
