A plurality of resilient retaining clips extend from the rear face. The clips are configured and adapted to partially encircle the pipes in gripping relationship thereto. At least one of the retaining clips includes a pivotal latch associated therewith and adapted for releasably latching the clip to the associated pipe and preventing undesired disengagement therefrom.
