: C/I Problem Soved?? Couple more Questions

I discovered the dimple on the hood on the pass side where the hose goes, but no retainer. Thanx Big Man!
Anyone know the P/N for this thing? I also need a longer vacuum hose from the carb to the vacuum actuator. What is the correct size and length of the tubing?
The vaccum pod connector point toward the engine, so it may be original.

I don't know the GM part number but its listed in my Classic Muscle catalog as a vacumn hose retainer, part#4382GM. The line should be 1/4". Cut the length to suit, start long then shorten as needed.
This part may also be available at the site's sponser Ground Up, if not try Classic Muscle from Modern Chevrolet, 1-800-722-4828

The vacuum line hose retainer is the same kind used along the drivers side inner fender.It is plastic about 2"long with a tooth on each end.It holds down the front end harness and wiper/washer rubber hose line.Very common at any auto parts store.
