Engine parts?

Looking at buying a 1974 F100 and can already tell it needs a little bit of love. There is a cover missing from some sort of container in the far back left corner of the engine bay. Not super familiar with the engine options that were available so just trying to figure out what it is and how much it might cost to get a replacement. Thanks!

The cover on the box, you can probably fine one and replace it if they didn't screw the box up much.

Looks like nobody has loved it in years. I'd look it over pretty good.

I'm wondering what the white hose is, I see the jheater core is closed with a short hose, and that fan is for heater / AC.

The missing cover likely was removed to replace the fan, but it wasn't meant to come out there, but from inside the truck. Then they gave up?




Not mine, but it is the missing cover.

X2 that "container" is your a/c evaporative assembly / heater core box. That is your blowe motor squirl cage you see. And yes that cover (#19A802) is normally riveted on. You need that part installed to make the system work properly. They must of replaced the blower motor thru the none normal, but doable way. That will be a JY sourced part, I have never seen just that part reproduced. If you can not find one local, ebay ect...I have a way to get you one from my local JY.
