There will, of course, be a TPU gasket which interfaces between the ABS duct and the stainless steel crosspipe where it goes through the engine tin.
I'll probably just glue the final elbows and spacers in place, easy enough to do by printing up a small lip so they stay on axis and I will use good ABS glue which is pretty strong stuff.
It was far, far, far more work than I expected and as I told two lady friends of mine, it has more curves than both of them put together!
All done though....now just try and make my custom engine tin work...
