When installing a hot water heater in my '31, does anyone have a picture of the correct "special fitting" for the back of the cylinder head that is referenced in the service manual?

Thanks in advance!

I have several of them. The thread into the back of the head have two outlets, one for the hose to the heater and the other to hold the temperature gauge bulb.

Tim,
The photo is one type. There are others that are all similar.

I’m looking to hookup the heater in my car and trying to track down the special fitting. No luck on eBay from what I have searched for. Anyone have one for sale?
