Are you on about the yellow pipe as seen here on mine.
If so you wont be able to buy one of the shelf because the angles and sizes are all to pot. So I just made my own using a couple of rolls of self amalgamating tape.

yer like that but mine will need to be longer as I dont have an AFM on mine. I have seen a few pics on here in the past of people using some samco type stuff.
Just wondering where they got it from even if they just brought a small lenght of it and cut it to size

Tape that will only stick to itself. Its kind of silicone/rubber based.
I made a template out of card, done one rotation all the way along and overhung it a bit, removed the template, cheked it was roughly ok then wrapped a few more layers around making sure not to kink or pinch it, them carefully trimmed it to length.
