MG TD TF 1500 - Air filter hose clamps

There is an L-shaped hose that connects the carburator air filter with the valve cover. I believe the hose is held in place by to hose clamp in each end. What kind of clamps, wire or steel band clamp? If wire, where can I buy them? Thank you.

Hi Stuart,

In his site, http://www.mgcars.org.uk/mgtd/index.html Chris Couper shows on an original unrestored TD steel band clamps, as he does on his own TD, which surprised me, I was willing to bet wire clamps!

warmly,

Stuart,
I cannot for certain say that the clamp in my picture is original, but it is what was on my 52 TD when I got it. Go to http://oldvbplayer.photosite.com/Partsthathavebeforeandafterpictures/
and look at picture number 8. I hope this helps. Maybe someone else on this BB will be able to tell me if it is the same as there original.
