I am new to the forum and honestly a new mini owner. I bought an 06 Mini Convertible and it was just not very well taken care of. I went to service it over the weekend and it still had the factory BMW spark plugs in it and plug wires were dated 2005. So needless to say, I am shocked it is even running. In the process of replacing the valve cover ( a whole other story), I broke an elbow connector that connects the hose coming out of the valve cover to the air intake hose. I have searched and searched and can't seem to find this part anywhere. I have attached a picture. Any help identifying this part or where I can purchase it would be greatly appreciated. I am sure throughout the work I will be doing on it, I will be seeking a lot of help. Thanks in advance.
