Well had a small issue when I was stripping the block the other day to get it ready for some new pistons. The third oil squirter I came to undo decided it would rather stop in the block. I was using a 12 point spline to remove them and had removed 2 already.
The 4th came out OK as well which left 1 in the block. Fortunately the heads on these bolts seem fairly soft, easier to to drill it out. But possibly why they stripped when I tried to remove it.
I looked around and found 4 OE oil squirters for £24 on fleabay.
The part number is 06B103154 where as the TT items appear to be O6B103154B .
The hole in the new parts appears to be fractionally larger. Does anybody know if there is any difference in the OE TT parts and these new ones. I am tempted to put the new ones in anyway as they have an Allen Key head on the bolts which looks a lot deeper than the spline items that were on the engine originally.
I can reuse the original squirter with a new bolt if that is the best way to go.
