It's the thing mounted under the carb, really low. It has a tube sticking out the top at an angle. I need a new one, 'cause mine keeps smoking when I get done driving at high speeds for a while.
Theres already a picture from the other side, hope this works

Quit postwhoring my thread LOL

Im trying to sell parts here LOL

Seriously, thats the exhaust manifold, with all the hand cutters (ooops i mean exhaust shields on it)

Smokes? Like how? Like smell like coolant? If it smells like coolant, you got a bad intake manifold gasket and intake manifold O rings

What does coolant smell like? It's kinda blueish smoke, but not really...

Sorry for post-whoring, but I didn't wanna start a new thread. Should I?

It only smokes after I turn the car off and park it somewhere. And then I usually open the hood and let it all just cool off some. I just noticed the dripping noise recently.

It doesn't do it unless I've been pushing the car above 45 for a long time.. Usually about an hour of driving will do it. It makes me scared to go on the bypass 'cause putting it at 70 for 20 minutes makes it not happy.

I don't need to pull the engine to pop this thing off, do I? I certainly hope not... I just wanna replace the broken **** real quick!

Edit: Mine doesn't have that pipe sticking off it. It's just a little thing sticking up at an angle.. Is that bad?
