It makes it a hell of a lot easier to work on and to replace them when they are a bit pliable. This is an Ontario carrier so I have a lot of experience when it comes to anything rusty.
Ledsel..
That canister with the three outlets that can be seen in the photo should have a fourth outlet..It is a heat exchanger for the arctic kit on a CMP .It was installed in the exhaust system just below the floor and hot air was piped up by the fan and blower to the windshield for defrost..a rare item ...
While not a 100% positive it looks familiar..
