Looks like a gas regulator. Would have liked to see a picture of a larger area. A guess would be NO2. Where does that line in pic one go?

I'm worried about the wholes that I circled on the pic. The engine seems hotter usual but the temp gauge looks fine.

It's a Dorman replacement intake manifold.

Hmm... so I'm guessing non pi? Thanks for the knowledge. Is it a good intake, or should I be worried about replacing it soon?

It's fine. It's just an aftermarket direct replacement intake made by Dorman. They have been known to have more of a tendancy to crack than stock Ford intakes but that is just part of the deal with any plastic intake. They are only going to last so long.

O well if it does crack then that's more of an excuse for p.I. thanks!
