Subject:Re: 82 diesel air intake elbow

Yes, the dip. But notice further along , downstream, there is a bigger water exit. 

I believe I’m right in remembering in the old diesel westy that there was a rubber drain grommet below the hole in that first dip. The second larger exit, the tube pointing down, was inside the engine compartment.
