Oil lines on heads...

Im just wondering whats their called, if their even oil lines for that matter. Possibly coolant lines? Their the ones on the back of the heads. I broke one of the lines and haveto replace the whole thing. Also, is it something that can be bought at a part store like auto zone? Or is it a dealer part? Thanks in advance and merry christmas.

Dealer part only. Coolant crossover pipe. There is a part # for the complete kit but i do not have my parts list on me. Comes with the pipe, the two bango bolts, the two spacers and four seals

Nope you need it. Don't forget to reconnect it up front on the throttlebody.
I couldn't break it free either trying to remove the heads so I just broke it and bought a new one.

The tube connected to the rear of the heads is designed to allow steam to be removed from the heads; you don't want to delete this feature!

Don't buy a new one. Splice it together. I cut the tube between the back of the heads on all of my customer cars that way you never have to remove the banjo bolts or have to remove the heads together again.
