Oil leak from front of engine

Traced it to the rubber hoses on the engine behind the radiator near the top of the engine, tightened clips as they were loose but doesn’t appear to have solved it, it there a modification to rectify this or any advice please.

Is that the short hose that goes into the throttle body. If so it will have split and needs to be replaced

Hi, yes it is, I am trying to find a silicone replacement but our vehicle is the 2010 model with the facelift ie new grill fog surround longer boot handle thing etc.
I found a supplier in uk but they state it doesn’t fit the facelift models.
Any ideas, cheers

Cheers

Silicone and rubber is the love affair of the century. A slight smear of silicone on the rubber makes the job a lot easier

Just watched the chap from powerful uk replace one so hopefully get it sorted next week as the oil leak is driving me nuts.
