Default quick question

What is the name of the tube that runs from the throttle body to the heads?

My friend has a 94 lt1 trans am and in the process of his mechanic installing his head gasket and adding headers this tube apparently broke

https://ls1tech.com/forums/lt1-lt4-m...onversion.html if you do need the steam pipe I would recommend doing this, cheaper then an oem steam pipe(if you can even find one) and much less hassle in the event you need the heads off again.
