Need a marelli iaw49 cable harness connector

[luximax]

Can anyone help with this nasty issue: somehow moisture crept into the ECU engine cable harness causing fatal corrosion at the ECU connector. I was able to repair the ECU, but do need a new cable harness connector. Fiat does not supply these connectors, and a new harness is VERY pricey. Does anyone have a spare connector? A Bravo or Marea connector would also fit.

Next question: how could this happen? Anyone see this happen before?

Can't help you with the connector but does the car in question have a bonnet vent?
