Re: What is this part?

There are two sections to that piece one side is for the IAC (intake vacuum) and the other side is a heater for the TB. Coolant passes through the connections and heats the TB in cold weather. A lot of warmer climate people bypass the coolant, to lower temps.

If you need a replacement go back the the manufacturer of the TB for the piece, after market. Or just look for an OEM TB at a junk yard, Auction, or parts swap meet.

Why do you need one and what kind/brand is it?
