Oddly enough, I just found a 'Bypass Hose Spigot' on ebay, listed for Classic Mini, MG Midget, that is a Hex drive, but looks very short

That is the spigot for the Cooper S iron water pump which I listed above. Yes it is short but does the job in repairing the Cooper S water pump.

The longer ones from New Zealand are the equivalent of £12.37 each, which if they are better isn't that expensive.
I have asked if they are able to post to the UK and how much it would cost. I await an answer.
I asked as some companies in the USA and Australia won't do international shipping.
Since (as far as I can see) the customer would be paying for the postage I view that as their loss.
Best wishes,
Mike.
