Sounds like the hot air tube for the choke

That comes out of the top near the riser. This is on the bottom. It's just a 1/4" male NPT to a fml inverted flare.

The tube which goes to the air cleaner gets attached to it.
Is it a 70 exhaust manifold?

Mom & Dad let me buy a brand new 70 Challenger R/T 440 Six-Pack Super Trac Pack when I was 17

(Robert what is a 440 Six-Pack)

This is the other side of the heated air ube thats activates the choke... The bottom of the manifold goes to the nipple on the baseplate...the top of the Manifold goes to the choke heat riser spring on the side of the carb. MSE Enterprises has both tubes and their heat wrap coating re-popped. Dick Kadder has the choke stove on the side of the carb. re-popped..
