Have to confess i know nothing about this static build up buisness but if it is connected up to metal ducting will that not act as a grounding?

The ducting would need to be connected to a ground and a conductor needs to be on the plastic and connected to the ducting. This stuff looks ideal for the job and is cheap enough http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SLUG-TAPE-COP ... 5ae278b36e
 
What's the difference between the metal ducting touching the plastic cyclone and the metal ducting touching another conductor touching the plastic cyclone? Just trying to understand it.

Understand the ducting itself you need to be grounded.

The plastic is non-conducting, touching it is not enough to remove a charge unless it has built up enough to jump through the air. (the issue we are trying to avoid)
Having a complete circuit throughout the system running to earth stops static building to spark inducing levels.
