Metal heater tube on intake manifold

[Slix]

Any ideas where I could find one of these or what the actual name is?

Thanks

Found it... GM part # 25525280
GBody has them in stainless steel.

Get the stainless.

Also do a search for ''gbody parts' before you order.

A used one on Ebay might start looking good.

...or just get rid of it and run plain ole heater hose.

My car is not a daily driver anymore. I imagine many here are not either. If it's a weekend warrior car or garage queen, just delete the heater hoses and put rubber caps on the heater core, it really frees up room and cleans things up a bit.
Even when I make weekend runs in the winter {which isnt to often} I can live without the heater.
