Technodrive hydraulic steering system

Hi, I'm trying to renew the above as one of the lines is badly frayed.
Anyone know where I can purchase a long neck funnel which screws into the reservoir behind the steering wheel.
Any help much appreciated.
Imo

Don't quite know what you require but have a "plumber's eye" for it - a tractor or mechanic pal should be able to help via Dingbro or Similar Car Parts supplier as they will have the "bits to make it up using push fit self-sealing fittings including a 8, 10 0r 12mm "BSP Boiler male threaded end with a push fit at the other end to receive bit of pipe and funnel.
Best wishes

RIBase
As IainK has suggested - a length of clear hose with a funnel at one end and a hose tail at the other with the same screw thread as the filler. The only issue you may have is with the size of thread. I don't know what nationality Technodrive is but is could be some US type thread rather than BSP.

From the internet, Technodrive is possibly part of Twin Disc. They have a UK distributor - MIT in Kent and they may be worth a call.
