Still looking for one of these inlet manifolds to fit a B BB BBR Rajo if anyone has one. Thanks for Mark Chaffin for the use of this photo. Same as the one on my car in the above photo taken of the car in 1925.

Would not be difficult to fabricate one and then texture to look like cast aluminum. Been there done that.

Look at the bright side. As soon as you fabricate one, you'll find one.

Exactly! Happened many a time. Restore what you have first and only make the part as a last resort.
