Possibly 997 106 850 01 from your description?  Not too good a drawing in PET but I guess that is the one.

I appreciate your reply. Thank you.

The part number is 996.106.226.52

It's a 5$ part. The nearest dealer had in stock. 2 new clamps and 1 gallon of coolant later everything is back to normal, i hope.

I'm not sure i understand why it's made out of plastic!!! The old part was completely cracked and falling apart. What if some of it ended in the cooling system. I'm sorry but this is totally unacceptable. A sad and dissapointing afterthought.
