Unknown part.
Hey there, wondering what this part is and how difficult it would be to replace it. Last owner decided to do an absolute hackjob of JB Weld on this thing. (Forgot to ****** a picture while I was in the engine bay so this picture off google will have to work haha)
Cheers!

I had that on my 89, I know other models didn't have the tube on the left, and think it's part of the EGR, what I can tell your car needs it, might be able to buy left handed tube section for your TPI!
My car had it on the right side.
Make sure you buy for your year. The one you are showing looks like they have the tube also on the right side, so you might have early C4 L89.
Also, if you are doing it yourself, remember the which bolt goes cause there different sizes and if I remember there is one bolt under the TPI to remove, don't use a hammer to break it loose from from TPI you will dent the tubes.
I also see them on e-bay, so do search for the correct one.
