Fitted my Magnefine steering filter last night, well it was badged Raybestos, sounds like Fraybentos or Asbestos. I unbolted the return line form the rack, put the hose in a vice and cut the hose 3 inches up from the rack and removed a few inches where the filter will live. There wasn't enough room at the top of the hose next to the cam cover for the filter to sit comfortably. Tightended it all down with Jubilee/banjo clips awaiting the cambelt/idlers replacement to arrive. BTW, you may have seen people on-line hacksawing these filters in half to see how much crud they have collected from their gearbox or steering. You don't have to hacksaw it open, it just unscrews to reveal the magnet and the paper filter inside.
