Expansion tank return hose 2002 9N 1.4
My temporary fix is holding up but I need to replace the return hose and can't find the product online at the usual sources. Can anyone help with a part number pls?

I'm afraid it is not brilliant news, the number was 6Q0 122 447 AN was for autos, now it seems - comments are 01/09/2022 dropped without any replacement!
As usual, maybe using these numbers in ebay etc might point you to some NOS being sold.
Good Luck!
Edit:- one used from a breaker, used - one new from Lithuania but pricy!

Thanks for your help with the part number.
The part seems to be an assembly rather than just the section of the hose I need. Whilst the hose has some bends that probably help absorb vibration I think over 22 years the flex has worn the bore where it fixes to the expansion tank. When I drain the coolant to do the cam belt etc I will have closer look. One option might be to splice in a new hose just on the last straight section that affixes to the exp tank.
Anyway, there are some NOS around £26 + P&P. A breaker's could be an option possibly for a late model year/low mls. I saw the Lit option but $$ as you say. I'm sure I can source here for similar if I have to.
EDIT: P.S. It looks like some of the products available use a stock photo/generic photo for the part
