1968 Auto 350 Stove Pipe

[Oregonjam]

Does any one have a stove pipe they can compare this one to that will confirm that this is correct for this application?

What was the original finish on this part?

Thanks for your help.

I came across two. The first one is in the first post the second is in this one. This does not have a hole in it on one end and has been repainted. Not sure if a hole is correct or not but the two Ihave posted are different from one another. Are either of these correct?

Any feedback? I wish there was a  parts refrence someweher with good pix, but that would be too easy.

Came across the thread named below that helped alot. Should have searched earlier...

Thank you for the assistance guys. I will use the pix to assist in finding a heat stove

The heat pipe arrived today. It is exactly as pictured by wagoonman, only it appears to have never been used, painted, or blasted. It is a bare steel part .

Were the heat pipes always painted black at the factory?
Just wondering why it would appear this way and what is correct. I planned on painting to match the air cleaner.

Thanks again... getting closer.

Were the heat pipes always painted black at the factory?

Yes, they were - they were dip-primed black just like all the brackets, etc.

I located the correct heat stove, with a lot of luck.

What finish did the Heat Stove have from the factory?
