what is the tube running up the bell housing and ending near the distributor. I know it's not the dipstick tube. The one on my B2 has a rubber cap on it. Is it a vacuum line? Does it dramatically affect the shifting? Thanx in advance for any help

If a vacuum line, what type of vacuum is needed? Ported or Manifold. Does it need a delay?

manifold vacuum.

does it shift right?

my guess is it shifts very late and if its in good shape very hard.
