Yes Simon, looks you've ordered the smaller type (3.5mm I think, which is for the float drain bowl tubes) . It's 5.5mm you need.

You are not alone Simon.Been there done that at the start of my 400 build.
Not sure if this will interest you Simon, but I got Piki to make me some decals for the overflow pipes off the carbs. Same as the ones on the HT leads, this way I can identify at a glance if one starts to leak and which one it is without pulling pipes off or tracing them back up (which isn't always possible) and saves fuel getting on top of the engine when you do pull a pipe off and find the overflowing carb, some engine paint don't like petrol so why risk it. I would also advise pulling the clutch lifter mechanism apart, the one inside the sprocket case. Check it's intact, especially under the seal, they do get cracked, inspect the ball bearing for roundness, clean it up and regrease liberally.
Yes Ted. It's all one piece, if yours is in 2 pieces it's broken and should be replaced.
Trigger supplied me with a stronger version. Very pleased.
