Default VVT: Help finding a bolt!

Hey folks,

I started a thread a couple weeks back about banjo bolts for a 2002 1.8 VVT system and it got me very close to finding the right banjo but not quite. I am looking for the intake side VVT banjo bolt that holds the VVT oil tube to the side of the block right above the oil sender unit.

The size of the bolt is 1/8 BSP and the one I got was 24mm in length and would only catch about one or two threads into the block. Does anyone have suggestions on where they've found longer ones (30mm or longer would be ideal) ones or if you have a used VVT motor that has these bolts on it?

this is the bolt I ordered off of Discount Hydraulic Hose and it's the correct thread but just not enough length: https://www.discounthydraulichose.com/3002-02.html

Part is discontinued so I'm really hoping I can get my hands on one!!

Thanks for your help

Duncan

If push comes to shove, you can always run an AN line.
