Throttle Body Spacer?

Was replacing the drivers side exhaust manifold on my 99 F-250 w 5.4L. When removing the egr tube from the egr itself, the piece that the egr and the iac mount to broke. From what I gather from rock auto's part catalog, it is called a throttle body spacer. When searching for parts on the internet, I cant seem to find much other than what is on rock auto.

It has p/n f8ue-9a589-ca stamped on it, but that doesnt turn up much, I asked the ford dealer, and that part number doesnt work. Any one have any info to this piece?

Thanks

Throttle body elbow. A spacer goes on that front surface between the TB and the elbow, and are junk FWIW.

Yes, your pic is of the elbow, not a throttle body spacer.
You need to replace the hole elbow to fix it if yours is broke.

I looked it up on rockauto and they are calling it a throttle-body spacer.
It looks to be the right part for you.

But they have spacers all over the net that are just a little thing in between the TB and the elbow that are junk. Dont buy one of them by mistake.
