" Hi!
To me it sounds like the tube that connects to the choke on the carburetor, if the tube itself is fastened on or in the exhaust cross over in the intake manifold. This tube is most of the time a loose fit however time and corrosion can make them stick real hard. The part of the tube that is in the hole is often necked down as compared to the rest of the tube diameter. Try to measure and drill out carefully about 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch in depth.Proceed slowly.
