Driver's side engine bay fuel line plastic cover

I don't know how else to describe it, unfortunately, but it's that flat, square-ish plastic cover that goes over the fuel lines sitting on the frame rail on the driver's side. About 12" long, 3/4" tall, bolts to the frame and interlocks on itself. If you know what I'm referring to, do they sell replacements? I found a number on the inside but it doesn't come up in Google searches or TGO searches. 12052272 is that number. TIA

That's for the electrical run, not the fuel lines. Ask in the WANTED section, you'll have to get off another car

Yes, as said, that's for the electrical, fuel lines are left open. However, the same stuff is used in the passenger compartment under the carpet between the driver seat and rocker panel. Junk yards is where I stock up on that part..

Re: Driver's side engine bay fuel line plastic cover

Good call! Thanks guys, yes, it's for electrical, I don't know why I thought it was for fuel lines. Mine is in decent shape although it's a bit distorted and warped a little, with a couple of cracks and holes in it. If I can't repair it to my likings, I'll hit the junkyards. There used to be one that specialized in F-body in town. I think that can wait 'til spring though. Thanks a lot for your input!
