Cool engine...noticed the bracket on the pass side front carb stud...I think that is a 70 LS6/L78 fuel line piece...

Nice engine.
The distributor looks like a restamp though IMO.

Wilma,

That bracket you are talking about is for the pcv hose.

I think it is a fuel line bracket...notice the hole in the bracket for the clampig self threading screw...can't find a PCV bracket photo at the moment...but I will look. I think the PCV bracket had a little bigger opening and no hole....others can chime in.

Yep, fuel line support. Same as mine except mine NEVER had the screw installed.

Check to see if the P/N is stamped in it.

Wilma,

Didn't see the little screw hole.Looked like pcv hose bracket upside down.Learn something new everyday talking with the pro's.
