What is the exhaust heat tube called?
I need another tube that goes from the exhaust manifold cover to the air cleaner. Winter is coming, and I don't want the carb to freeze. I'd like to know the exact name of this and the part # if possible.

Uhh thats the thermvac tube.... honestly I wouldnt worry about it.... it's supposed to help with cold weather.... I never noticed a difference if it was on or not..... maybe it was just me and my car.... but yeah... there was also the truck for the guy I worked for... thing was missing... but the truck started and ran good every day in winter.....
Oh yeah and I'm talking like -20 -30 weather here....

I'd vote for "stoned".
It's also called the heat riser and heat stove. Measure the OD of the nipple on the manifold "stove", get that size from the parts store. They sell universal lengths that you can cut to the proper length.
