Default Choke Control Module on 81 Vette?

Does anyone know what the "relay box" located on the driver's side behind the trim panel carpet is call. it's down by one's right hip when seated. Mine buzzes intermittently and the choke indicator light comes on when it is removed and stays on.
Are they available in the after market parts world?

It's called the choke heater relay. You can get them from the local chevy dealer for about $10. You have to break a plastic pin off for the plug to fit tho. I don't have the updated part number, just take your old one along.
