Thanks so much for the reply.
Where does it send the warm air, and what doesnât work if itâs missing?
Edit: looks like itâs a pre-heating tube. Sends warm air to the air cleaner to preheat the air being drawn in. Does that sound right?
Edit: and then i found this!!!

OK, you found it. However yours would use a bigger tube than the one in the 66 thread.
