From the Go Westy website, a repair kit for the migrating steel sleeves in
the coolant system plastic pipes:

Another reason to find a brass sleeve in a coolant hose, sorry if this has
been mentioned before.

All of the original plastic pipe metal sleeve inserts I have ever seen are
steel (they rust). I have purchased two of these kits but haven't installed
them yet. The idea is to use heat (heavy duty heat gun) and shove the
migrating steel insert back into the plastic pipe. A brass sleeve is then
inserted into the hose connection and double clamped to prevent the steel
insert from migrating again. Instructions are on the site. I'll try this
before replacing the plastic tube.
