I've been there too... At my first 505 Turbo the head was damaged, and with my
second Turbo it was just the head gasket...
Don't think that the N9TE engine is a bad one, in both cases I pushed over the
limits. Those things happen when you lock the waste-gate of your turbo...
Within seconds your speed goes up to about 135 mph...and then suddenly.... white
smoke....the end : (
To get back to your question.....
A head gasket costs about $50 at the local Peugeot-dealer here in the Netherlands...
I don't know about the hose but I'm almost sure they've got it..
Let me know if you're interested.....
