So It has been some time since this thread died off, thought I would bring it back.
Has there been any TSBs on V8s in the 957s or VIN numbers or mfd dates for when these manufacturing issues in regards to coolant leaks have been fixed?
After all the money I spent on my 955 to fix these issues, I would like to be proactive on this one if there is such a thing.
I see the pipes have changed as stated:

The '09 will have a single plastic pipe exiting the thermostat housing and extending to the rear of the engine. It then connects to two rubber hoses via clamps.
I've not heard of this pipe failing but, as a prophylactic measure, I replaced it when doing the thermostat a few weeks ago along with the thermostat housing, vent pipe, etc.

What did you replace it with?
