radiator header tank pipe

where have people plumbed in the header tank for crossflow & radiator without filler cap, the manifold heater/ heater pipe looks best but where do you get a suitable tee piece

thanks all

I'm going to use copper plumbing fittings from B&Q etc. The pre-soldered type. I'll probably powder coat them to tidy up the appearance.

Make sure your powder coater is very careful as the powder coating process is almost the same as solder liquid state.
