Yes I have now - I had seen it but was just hesitating to see if i could find an exact replacement here (and maybe save on shipping). But someone else mentioned it on the forum so I've gone through with it now. Thanks!

I have a 1971 C&C 35 Mk1 with an atomic 4 engine, lying Etobicoke, (near Toronto). The gas fill hose disintegrated so I am replacing (with much swearing). The most challenging part is to find a replacement for the elbow that makes the 90 degree turn from the fill hose into the tank. The existing piece is a fuel stable soft rubber like material, (5"long, 1.5 "ID) with MFHL 150 stamped on the outside, and a just barely visible EWCO written on the inside. It could be the original piece that C+C put in way back. I have tried a hard plastic replacement without success. There is very little clearance between the top of the fill tube on the tank and the underside of the cockpit - I think I do need something flexible that I can squish over the tube coming in from the side and then down onto it, as this flexible piece did. But I have not been able to track down a direct replacement. I've done a bit of searching online but I have not found the exact piece, nor have any idea if I could ever track something like this down from an automotive supplier. If anyone has experience with this, or tips on finding a replacement, I'd appreciate your thoughts. Need to get this sorted before launch! Blasted Auxiliary...
