I recently pulled the snout off my eaton to replace the front and rear drive shaft bearings. While trying to remove the bolts that hold the snout to the case, I ran into the outlet fitting for the intercooler adaptor. Seems to be a common problem upon searching. To get the snout off, there seem to be two methods: 1) partially remove the intake and lift the blower up to clear the fitting or 2) remove the fitting from the block. I opt'd for option 2 (seemed like less work at the time).

Link 1 - thread about removal of fitting
Link 2 - blower removal steps - good picture on step 9 > red arrow on the right

Now that I have the snout rebuilt and put back on the car, I need to replace this fitting. I think I could clean this one up and reuse it if I HAVE to, but I'd prefer to get another one.

Does anyone know what this piece is called and where to get one?

Well after much research, I've got a couple options. Seems like you can order AL ones for radiator applications but they mostly come from overseas. Then I stumbled onto this:

Ordered. We'll see how it works.
