Re: Radiator overflow pipe
The Mini radiator is much narrower than the Minor radiator therefore the Mini overflow pipe I suspect may be too short to clear the bottom of the engine bay. You do not want engine coolant exiting the overflow pipe and pooling inside the engine bay especially as there is a chassis leg vent hole not too far from the bottom of the radiator.
I would advise that you get the right pipe from ESM which will not break the bank.

The original overflow was black and rubber. The correct pipe is available from Moss Europe
Procure a overall length that exits below the engine bay.
