Pulled the thermostat out so I could get to the bottom of the problem hose, PITA of a job but worth it to get it all sorted
PIC 1, problem child, this is just under the oil filter housing, and a bit towards the center of the engine
PIC 2, Water pump from bottom, you can see that I've removed the 2 bolts that hold the thermostat in place
PIC 3, The broken front of the hose
PIC 4, Thermostat removed from the car
PIC 5, offending hose, O Ring and extra piece of plastic
PIC 6, From under the car you now get a good view of the front turbo, it wasn't this clean, I cleaned it up since I had access
