So I bought a 2001 Cherokee sport and this long plastic housing that runs along the length of the engine seems to have melted off of where it was connected to the valve cover gasket. Does anyone know what this is called and where to find a new one?

 

pics?

It is the long black plastic piece that has wires coming out on the right side of the valve cover

 

I'm sure that loom is NLA (no longer available). You could try a junkyard but it's so old and fragile you will probably break it into a million pieces taking it off.

 

I could not find a part # or what it is called after I busted mine in half when I removed it doing my 4 hole injector upgrade, valve cover gasket, replaced the heat shield, cleaned my throttle body, and IAC all at the same time. I reglued it but I am thinking the J.B. Weld I used will deteriorate from the heat over time. Might try to yank one out of the boneyard but I am betting what Turbo X_J said will happen.
