Thanks for that mate.
I've just blocked them off for now so i can drive it this weekend but I'll probably run some rubber hoses in place of the copper ones once I get round to making the heater work again.
Thanks for thee photo too, was a great reference!

I would think as far as the cooling system is concerned that should be just like having the heater on full.
You would need to find the right diameter hose to fit
A PITA job having to drain the system to do the job, and bleed afterwards.

Anyway, in case you don't have it here is a pic of the SW20 turbo heater system.

Hey Guys,

I've recently discovered a leak in the copper heater pipes that run from the engine bay to the frunk. In an attempt to have it ready to drive next weekend would it be possible for me to just bypass this setup by looping a hose between the inlet and outlet in the engine bay or would this cause more problems?

Thanks in advance for your help.
