Transfer Case Vent Tube

At the top of the transfer case where the lever is inserted, the sub-assembly has a small metal vent tube (see below image, circled in red) which a hose is connected and routed to the transmission. Its a very short run, only a few inches.





The problem I have is I need to replace that metal tube, it was broken off and the entire sub-assembly is no longer available to order at least not that I can find.

The only thing I have been able to locate is a vent tube for a Jeep --


The toyota version does not have a bend in it. Do I think it will matter, probably not. Still, that good ol' OCD factor, right?

Anyone have a lead on this vent tube? Thx.

 

Isn’t it made of steel? Heat it up and straighten it out

edit, that’s if it even fits. I don’t know if the fitting dimensions are the same. Maybe some junkyards in your area can hook you up

 

If it were mine, I'd drill the hole out with a #21 drill bit, tap it to 10-32 and install one of these

drill and tap with a barbed fitting, easy peasy.
