The 67 L48 engine (350/295) used a Rochester Q-Jet, so you need to get THIS ONE (http://www.rickscamaros.com/camaro-vacuum-advance-tube-set-small-block-for-cars-with-cast-iron-intake-manifold-1967-1969.html).

Hey pracing -

I've got one of these if you need an original - be glad to send it to you if you'll pay the freight. I'll try to dig it out of the frozen garage tonight and get a pic if you want -

Regards,
Steve

Maybe its correct for the q-jet but for our Holley set up the kits have the wrong small piece to the carb. Our orig. vs. a piece of the stripped vac. hose.

I've been told that the DOC REBUILD (http://www.docrebuild.com/dr-r-web/3750338.HTML) vacuum hoses are "correct". I haven't checked it out myself, but the same hose was used throughout GM for a number of years, not just Corvette and Camaro.

By the way, there are a couple of good pictures of the Q-Jet tube and hoses in THIS (http://www.camaros.org/forum/index.php?topic=2071.0) thread. This engine is a 68 L30 (327/275) but the setup is the same as the 67 L48 engine (350/295).
