Turbo inlet pipe.
 
Can you change the inlet pipe without taking the bloody manifold off? Im my haste to get the car running again, i managed to snap a breather pipe off in the cold!

You should be able to just blank the breather off and/or re-route it.
IIRC the only intake pipe that you can get under the inlet doesn't have any breathers onit anyway. That's why it fits as it's the breather that fowl on bits.

I have 2 spare OE pipes if you need one in a hurry?

I might just blank it off for the time being, its a good excuse to get a upgraded one, like a Spec C one or something.

I've a FMIC waiting to go on too, so they would have to be blanked off soon anyway.

Its the short pipe that jumps up to the pipe attached to the IC.

Perrin one too, although it's a PITA to get on.

If your swapping for a silicone inlet pipe, the inlet manifold does not need removing. Just cut the breather point's on the old hard inlet closest to the turbo and slide pipe out.
