Hi there, ive recently bought a 2003 4200, one owner from new, 32000 miles and in exceptionally good condition. it has been off the road for the last nine years and I am working my way through it to restore it to as good and reliable condition as I can. I have replaced the F1 pump courtesy of the very good instructions I found on this forum. The car now runs very well. There is a very slight oil leak which seems to be coming from the middle section of the flexible part of the oil tank hose. the ends are both dry. I thought it might be just saturated with oil from an oil change that had previously been done without removing the engine under tray. However I have wrapped it with tissue for the last few nights and there is still oil appearing so Im sure there is a leak. Has anyone ever changed this hose ? or got any advise.

Thanks Ashley.
