Well, according to my set of "professional quality" hole guages from Lidl
it's 3.958mm dia on a new piece of pipe, but surprisingly, when you then measure the end that's already been fitted onto a fitting for a while it's 4.183!!!
But there's no acceptable wear limit quoted in the Haynes Manual, so I have no idea when they'll need replacing.
AND they're not a check item in the service schedule.
So I'm blaming my next accident on vacuum pipe failure.
Let's see what the insurance people make of that

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
