Default ZO6 "H" pipe

Does anyone know how large the hole is in the connection tube on the "H" pipe on the ZO6 exhaust?

would it be the same as the BBE X pipe... since it slips in the exhaust I don't have H pipe out yet but ill have it out in next 2 weeks but I have the X pipe sitting in my garage now I can measure it if im understanding it correctly.

I assume you mean the diameter of the pipe, since you can't measure the hole unless you cut the pipe apart.
Here's a pic that shows the cross pipe to be slightly smaller than the 3" pipes, so I'd suspect it to be 2.87 or more likely 2.75 OD.

I have seen a H pipe from a C5 and the hole is about 15mm across.
It's definitely not as big as the pipe, apparently doesn't need to be.

It's very close to 3", though slightly smaller, as was already stated
