Hi all,
I need to replace a copper microbore manifold but can't find one to match.
Just moved to a 30 year old house, copper microbore c/h system. Bathroom radiator not working when moved in. Had boiler replaced, (failed its service), which included power flush but it didn't clear the radiator. I drained system,

removed radiator and tried bicycle pump on pipes, one clear but other one blocked. Had floorboards up and located manifold, see picture. There are 8 X 10mm compression fittings, it looks like both feed & return pipes from 4 radiators are connected to the one manifold!!!! (Not sure how that would work but all the other radiators get very hot).
I wish to replace the manifold because it looks like it has been leaking, and while it's off I will clean the pipes to clear the blockage. I looked online and it looks like it's a Pegler Yorkshire Manifold but now unavailable!
Advice please, where can I get a similar manifold and if it connects to the feed & return, how does it work, is there a baffle in the middle?
Thanks in advance.
 
Thanks, am I right in thinking my original manifold has a baffle in the middle to separate flow & return? If so, x2 Toolstation manifolds and solder 10mm's straight onto 22mm ends of the F&R would work great. Thanks
