Intake manifold tube
Hey guys I broke a little intake manifold tube on the back of the head by the distributor.
What is it called?
are there any other better solutions to replacing the stock one?
Also. What does the other end plug into?

What year car are you describing? Little intake manifold tube sounds like a TPI motor (1985-1991). If you're speaking about the small 5/16" diameter steel tube at the back of the motor, it's a "Coolant Steam Vent Pipe" and it connects to a 5/16" rubber hose which goes back to the upper heater hose T connector. They are no longer available from GM to my knowledge, but you may find one at a recycler or possibly on eBay. The one on this auction is rusted to hell but it's there...
