Anyone seen an alternative to the foam fuel rail covers? Mine are starting to come apart.

LOL I've always wondered what that piece on the firewall is too.THRAPY said:Didn't get a chance to upload yesterday. Suspension mod took longer than I thought.
Here are the pics. The foam just started crumbling on the edges where I touched it when removing and re-installing it for a water temp port. If you rub it, it comes apart in coffee ground sized pieces.
Extra credit for anyone who can tell me what the heck the piece that sticks up off the firewall that looks like it's wrapped in electrical tape in the last picture. The dealer couldn't tell me what it's for.

I don't use anything under the hood with silicone or petroleum. No idea what the guy who owned it before me may have put on it.
I like that they dampen some noise but I really don't care for the fact that they are just foam blocks. Under hood is too hot for long term stability. Like anything else, they will dry out and fall apart. Just didn't expect so soon.
