Inlet manifold stub (undrilled for balance pipe adaptor)
An undrilled inlet manifold stub for the cylinder head, without the balance pipe adaptor hole machined in.
71-7048 is an inlet manifold stub that mounts to the cylinder head on the intake side, feeding the carburetor into the engine. This particular version is listed as undrilled for the balance pipe adaptor, meaning it does not have the hole machined in for a balance pipe connection between the two manifolds.

It shows up in the parts book under the CYLINDER BLOCK AND HEAD section, which tells you it lives right at the head, not further down the intake tract. Since it appears in the catalog for a single year, there isn't much more history to draw on for this one.
If your bike currently has a manifold with the balance pipe hole drilled and you're trying to match what's on the engine now, check that detail before ordering this undrilled version, since the two aren't the same part.
