Struggling to find a replacement cooling hose

My TF sprang a leak a week or so ago and I finally found time to get under it and remove the culprit, it turns out to be part number PEH000581 which has burst on the elbow half way down. I figured I would replace the whole thing from the head to the Thermostat but after trying various places nobody seems to stock the part any longer, part 23 on the attached image, (although all other parts are in stock).

I would appreciate anyone pointing me in the direction of a solution or alternative as I don't know where to go next. I have tried all of the obvious online sites.

Have you tried MG owners club spares?

Hi, yes I have tried them. No joy.

Try MGFNTFBITZ

I guess you've looked at Rimmers who have one hose '23' but with a different part number:

Is this it:

Used, last resort.

Thanks everyone

I have made contact with some of these. Thanks for the Rimmers lead, it looks like they have one but not most of the other parts. I am just awaiting a call back from one of the others before I decide what best to do

Thanks for everyone's help. After several phone calls and emails I have managed to source the parts from two suppliers. Fingers crossed they turn up and are correct. I then just have the fun of fitting them!

I had this problem, had to source a felxible hose from a kit car suppliers.

Yes had the same problem the singal hose was/is discontinud £30 and it's replacement one is £79 but a silicon hose was £50 and in the end bought the hole kit £250
