Let's see what I can break now
Do you have some pictures to show how it looks after the hoses / connections are pinned?? BTW I am still wondering why nobody has sued Porsche for this yet. It's like the gas tank in a Pinto... Nothing wrong until something goes wrong.

I didn't take pictures of mine, but looked pretty much like these photos.
