You are talking about the Steam line I assume.. custom make one, it will be cheaper, and work better.

LT1 has the steam vent line connected to the back of the heads. LS1 has it in the front, and LS6 is bent differently. Which model you're asking about?

No. The reason they are there is cause of the Casting. Since a Head is cast out of 1 mold, and them lines are on the same side, if you put only 1 side of the cast with a hole, it would end up opposite of each other when you put them on the Engine. I am suprised that they are out and not blocked. The fronts should be blocked.
