Carb help

I have a 66 f100 long bed. 3 on the tree. I’m looking for a carb spacer that has a vacuum attachment from the passengers side valve cover/pcv. I can’t seem to find one anywhere. It’s a 2 barrel carb but I don’t know what kind it is. I’ll attach the tag of the carb. Motor is a 352 (according to the door jam)

Any ideas?

Any help would be great and many thanks in advance.

The originals were a phenolic plastic material that would get brittle over time and heat cycles. Often the attachment would either break off completely or they crack which usually results in a vacuum leak.



The common replacement some have used is the aluminum one like Mustangs used. Lots of those on eBay.

Yes

Thank you. That is exactly what happened. I was replacing the hose and it just broke off. Then the truck would t idle unless I pulled the choke all the way out.
I saw those on eBay but I wasn’t sure if they would work/line up. Thank you for confirming
