So you need a 45 degree silicone hose.
Measure the size of each end first and then order. If sizes are different on each end order a reducing size 45degree elbow.
Cut to size.

It has a small outlet pipe, which was connected, and it has rails for other pipes to connect to it; I'd rather find a direct replacement than fashion a solution that takes more effort to make it work.

Mine is the same and unfortunately you cant get them new anymore. The small pipe comming off is the intake for the PCV to the valve cover. Mine is adapted in with silicone nuts and bolts. The rails I have no provisions for as nothing used them on mine.
You can just see it in the picture I posted.

I had 2 broken pipes I tried to fix with PU adhesive but both failed to be airtight. I'm sure one will pop up.

Did you get this sorted?? Plenty of breaking parts on ebay at the minute. Got some really good prices from a few guys, could be a good option?
