Default What's missing
Hello! I just got a 1984 C4 and wanted you guys to look at a pic of the engine. There seems to be a missing part here.



Here is a reference image I found.



So... what is missing and is it terrible that it's not there.
Thanks for your help.

Looks like a heat riser tube kind of like a bottle warmer.

The question is how much of the "heat stove" is missing? I believe I've a much better image but this is a fairly complete image of an L83 "top of engine".
