Presuming it is 22mm and not 3/4"...
 
Or would it be simpler to discard overflow fittings that come with new cistern (slightly diff dimensions) and just use a 22m compression tank connector? Would a new ceramic cistern come with plastic overflow arrangement?
 
It will probably come with an internal overflow syphon with blanks
 
are you replacing the toilet ??? I would do away with the overflow most if not all new toilets are internal overflows anyway, scrappy scrappy !!:)

anyone ever came across that 1 1/4" browny plastic that looks identical to old dirty copper ??? I was rather disappointed when I realised it wasnt copper :(
 
Get a "Country Pattern" syphon and the water will overflow into the toilet in the same way most modern close couple toilets do and get rid of the overflow all together.

Either that or a 9metre hose from your local Poundland! LOL

i'm gonna get in here before Tam gets home from work and say yes i do it was called "Bartol" i fitted miles of it, push fit was ok to be honest, haha its funny to think of you finding some of my old work and thinking it was copper, you must have been ragin when you realised
 
haha my eyes lit up when i seen it then it was sheer disappointment once i touched it and realised it was plastic haha
 
I've got some of that in my house. I was told it was called Copper Tone.

...and cheers for the advice everyone
