Heres the thread mate https://www.corsa-b.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11231
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway

Re: Paperclip test
Thanks mate! I think i fixed it, one of the hoses coming from the rocker cover, the larger one goes to the carb and the smaller one goes down behind the block, the smaller one was blocked with thick black gunk, cleaned it out with high pressure water, light hasnt came on on a short drive i went on, could that have caused the eml?
