Looks like a pipe or hose coming from thermostat ? could be wrong though

[lilangel]

its about 6" aluminium pipe that slots into thermostat on one side and to the top of the rad hose on the other. original got broken when i had the thermostat changed on friday and vauxhall have it on backorder. tried breakers, no luck, everyone says they never broken 3.2 v6 as they are reliable, doh! contacted vauxhall headquaters, see what they can do.......

I have tried vaux parts warehouse , vauxcentre and 247 parts and none of them have anything on this part.
If it is just an alloy pipe i was wondering what are the dimensions were, surely something can be made to suit.
