It has been a couple of weeks since I have been under the car and not having had any more dizzy spells thought I would give it a go to finalise the piping on the air compressor and change the fuel filter.
Did the fuel filter first - got light headed but Ok.  The air compressor also went Ok - now just has a piece of rubber hose joining the compressor to the plastic air exhaust pipe - exhaust now vents as designed to atmosphere in a rear compartment and no longer when venting air the car no longer sounds like a bus farting.
The interesting thing is that when removing the air compressor and the rear pipes will not come out there is no issue cutting the pipes but make sure you leave enough pipe to push a piece of rubber hose over.  As they are low pressure, special connectors are not needed and all you need is two small pieces of fuel or vacuum hose, one with an internal diameter of 8mm and one with 10mm and you just slip them over the hose ends to join them.
Much easier to remove next time around and works perfectly.
