Is this a cause for worry or something that should be replaced immediately. I just notice it today when doing a fluid check. I am at a loss as to why i never noticed it before, but now that i have i am wondering if i should replace.

Thanks in advance

 

Don't worry about it, it's just the SAI pipes. It does not look like it is restricting much air flow.

 

Thanks for the reply. I am a little baffled as to how i missed it while doing other maintenance all this time.

 

Wow, I'm glad Bundu responded and knew these were SAI. Looking at the pix had me seriously worried about the fact that I had never seen anything like this in my engine bay. ('No SAI' has to be one of the advantages of having a '99 over an '04.)

 

Well I've touched every damn part in that engine bay lol
