   as above really lost 1 and cannot find it cracking me up. and im not spending 21 quid just to get 1. also why do peugoet and citroen sell engine parts in packs of 5 or 10 when you only need 8 16 or 32 of whatever. does any one have a half cone ill giv you a couple of quid and cover postage. cheers

   Any engine repair place will be able to supply one

   Sounds like a collet - they are expensive from Citroen - but in the grand scheme of an engine rebuild it's not a lot.
