Maybe have it welded.
I don't know what I'm talking about most times, but you'll need the right welding rods and the right prep work for the weld to take in the cast manifold.
I had the exact same thing happen to me and I tried brazing mine back up. I lost the ear as well so I brazed a stud over where it was.
It was a lot of work and in the end the heat warped everything and it ended up all coming apart. Imo its not worth it and I ended up going with a header.
Best of luck!

Would a 1974 with 1.5F be the same? If so I can probably help you out.

I am reading that it is adaptable to the 1f.

I’m going to part out the drivetrain of this 74 pig. I can get a better pic of the manifold tomorrow.
If you can't fix it let me know. I just pulled a 155 out of a truck yesterday that's going to the scrap yard. I can pull the manifold and ship it to you. You just pay for shipping.

I have always thought these air cleaner housings were cool - if you don't have much going on in front driver side part of your engine compartment - but how does it mount to the carb? I don't see the mounting stud/wing nut sticking out the top.
They have a band clamp underneath and its kinda tricky to get everything in there right and sealing. My 74 has some of the ports blocked off and Im guessing it was for some kind of smog pump?
I'd like to find an original oil bath air cleaner for mine but they may have never had those in the U.S.

And then check out this pic from the Brutus thread:
We will name him Brutus.
Well here it is. I started spraying off some of the engine bay. I replaced the right rear door, fixed the inner handle on the passenger front door, fixed the hood latch, unstuck the ignition, cleaned the carb, fixed literally ALL of the wiring (nothing would turn on, none of the fuses had...

I’d say I got greedy and gave it an extra turn. With the oil filter out you can kind of get two hands in there but not exactly see so great.
Couldn't agree more! Same price if not cheeper than other options and you get a couple more horses out the deal!HEADER, HEADER, HEADER
