Default A/C and heating problem

hi, i have a 82 corvette. it has power window and cruise control and it the collector edition. when i bought this car it has the inner heater and A/c box but the entire external box or cover in the hood are gone. i am trying to rebuild the car but i dont know what part i need to get. picture of this part will help and name. standing infront of the car, by the firwall i see the inner part with two pipe coming out of it. i guess that is the heater core but it doesnt have any cover and there is a big round hole on the firewall close/under fender. pls help me coz am lost and i dont want parts to buy to cover the heater core and the hole. thanks. if anyone has pic of these part pls send me or if have a pic of ur car with this parts showing clearly pls send me pics. thanks.

I think you might be refering to the blower fan/motor that goes in the "big round hole".
