just a coolant hose for the primary turbo, I think.

 

A generic piece of radiator hose the right length and diameter will do the job.

 

Did your BOV go 'gurgle gurgle' when it swallowed all that coolant ?

I had a similar coolant hose split on the bottom of the secondary turbo. I was half way into a 6 hour drive away for our anniversary. I drove the car several KM in the red with practically no water just so I could get into a town. You're lucky it happened in your garage!

 

Fixed it on the side of the road using generic heater hose from the only spare parts shop in the small town. It was a mission to get to that hose but I somehow managed with basic tools. I filled her back up with bottles of water from Woolies and continued driving for another 3 hours. Don't think the EPA would have liked the coolant I left in the gutter.
