Choke stove Tube

Does anyone know where I can buy a choke stove tube for a 455? I found one on ebay but its listed for a 350. Thank you.

Which tube do you need?

There are 3:
the U shaped heater that goes into the exhaust passage in the intake manifold.
the tube that goes from the U heater to the carburetor choke housing
the tube that goes from the U heater to the air inlet on the top rear of the carburetor.

All are available from multiple Oldsmobile vendors.

These are available from Dorman at your local auto parts store if you aren't doing a concours restoration.

If you cant find one we have made them from a 3/16" OR 1/4 "brake line & just flare the end going into the choke spring housing with the flare nut.

I didn't realize there was a third. lets assume all three then... Do you know if the parts for a 350 will work with a 455? I only see them for a 350.
