Exactly What is Banjo fitting and how does one clean it?

Been just in a tweaky mood with my SD. Can someone tell me where this Banjo thing is and how to clean it etc. Are there any pics available of this?

Thanks guys

Look at what is bolted to the side of the ALDA...its brass with a somewhat clear tube off of it...there is a matching one on the rear side of the intake manifold....think its a 10mm bolt..but may be larger..I forget.

the bolt gets black goo in it as well as the fitting.

Brake of Carb cleaner in a spray can is very efficent too....after you pick the goo out with something like a toothpick or whatever is handy.
