    Standing at the front of the car, bonnet up, and looking down the left-
    hand side.

    I see the end of the bottom of the radiator, then I see a little pipe
    with a small clamp on it. It seems to be behing the radiator. Any idea
    what this pipe does?

    Thanks

    Ok,

    As Chris said, it is a bit vulnerable with just a small screw clamp
    between water and no water.
