Big Problem!
I am in the process of doing a head and cam swap and as i was pulling off my stock (LS1 99) intake manifold i broke something. Im not shure what it is but it was in the very back of it. Here is a pic. [IMG]Copy of DSC00642[/IMG]
If anybody knows what this is can you please tell me and tell me what it does as well as how to get it out and what to do to fix it (im assuming buy a new one) Thanks you so much!

I see the pic didnt come out so i will try to discribe it. It is in the back attached to the block it had an o-ring in it (orange) and it has a metal clip thing in it. if i push on the inside it feels plastic and it makes a popping noise. If you still dont know what it is could you post me a private message with an email so i could send the pic? Thanks again.
