Default What is this?
One pic looks like the hose where the thermostat housing was exploded, the car i got it from was hit in the front but didnt hurt the motor, would this explain the powder in the heads? Not sure if those bolt holes are unused or what. Anyone who could tell me, thanks.

yea i was wondering what the powder was, someone said since it was hit in the front or so it could be busted battery so it could be battery acid dried into the holes.
