Duct Tape and Root Beer

I can't even figure out the reason for some of the stuff that was done to my bus by PO's.

Duct tape not a good material for warm or hot pipes, regardless of its design intent. You might want to consider another material.

Yep, not too keen on putting the duct tape back on. Was told that the tape made for mufflers would work good in this spot. Think so ? What about reattaching it to the wall and heater channel ?

I have a friend who is a retired heat and air-conditioning guy, and those people can bend and shape sheetmetal in ways that amazes me. If you could find a sympathetic craftsman, he'd whip up a solution in no time. I kind of like the cut beer can approach. Just be sure to place the seams so that the flow of air encourages the flow in the right direction. I guess we need a drawing here.

No, I get what you mean.....air flow must be from small pipe into larger pipe or it will leak out the seams. Hmmmmmm now where's that beer can.

I've used Aluminum tape on the heat system before and it worked good. I bought it years ago at Harbor Freight.

Sheet metal and HVAC foil tape. I love the stuff.

So you're saying that you don;t need a part now???

I thought we were talking about the bakelite part under the rearend. The Y-Pipe yopu show, doesn;t look damaged at all. What's wrong with it?
