Don -

I had to replace this on my 84 Westy earlier this year because I broke
the 8mm pushon fitting that the bypass hose connected to (I will remember
to CUT the hose next time, not pull it off).

Part Numbers:

025-121-082  Manual Transmission Models

025-121-082A  Automatic Transmission Models

Price for either one lists for $42.40 in the latest VOA Parts Price List.
