What tube is this???



Inside the yellow circle...


I found a crack in this tube coming off the top of the motor to the left side (looking from the front) carb. But I cant seem to find the name or part number for this tube.


Any help would be great thanks

Heat riser tube for the choke.


And what year is the truck, it can't be 87 or newer with that carb? Your name suggests a 78?

What year and engine ? From what I see , it looks like a hot air tube for the choke .
Does it connect to the choke housing ? If so , that is what you have there .

Thank you both. This is a 1978 F150 with the 400, 2WD (probably should have said that first). I'll start looking for that choke tubing.
