Any idea if there is a upgrade or something for the hoses attached to the intake manifold would be appreciated. Plastic gets brittle and snaps , second time this has happend . Plastic tubes leading to the T part??

I am assuming you are talking about the PCV Piping ?

Connector inthe RH Rear Cam Cover, then to a Elbow, the to T, and then to the Intake Manifold on Both sides ?
I have just replaced mine, as I broke it a couple of times when re-fitting it after Replacing the Chains.

The Item in question, is still available,
and I purchased one [OEM] from Peter Page Holden in Adelaide, inc Delivery $55

There isn’t really. It would only be a mish mash of different diameter vacuum hoses connected to different brass fittings. Would be messy. The factory PCV hoses are going to last about 10-15years so not too bad.
