    This pipe fell out of the passenger side rocker during a Plenum Pull (called a Manifold Collector in the FSM)
    Should this be a loose fit in the rocker cover?

    Common for them to come out. Not suppose to tho. Glue it back in there with something and you will be OK.

    It's similar to the two at the front(which sometimes work loose and jam the throttle butterflies open), they are "press-fit"(interference fit) items. You can put a small dab of Superglue(or Silicone)onto them and push them back into position. No big deal!:zlove:

    Loctite will do a good job also if you can clean all the oil off first.
