i searched a bit for photos of a S4 6 port lower manifold, but the only thing i found was this: https://www.aaroncake.net/rx-7/4portlimto6port.htm
if you look at the 6 port manifold, you should see it - at least, what i think is it.

the split air pipe, if i am not mistaken, is the one that runs from the air pump to the cat. there is an attachment to the lower intake somewhere in there, but someone else will have to fill in the details - or check the FSM. it's been decades since i've seen a stock Gen 2 engine bay.

EDIT - j9fd3s posted while i was typing.

What bracket is this?

In a similar vein, this was an exhaust hanger before it rotted away. Does anyone know the part number for this piece?

It went on the back end of my pre-silencer where it bolted to the Y-pipe. I think I really need one of these!
