Post subject:  MR 175 intake manifold

I'm currently in the process of restoring a 76 mr175 , so far everything on the bike is pretty salvageable but I'm missing the carb and and intake manifold. I'm most worried about the intake manifold though, I can't find one for sale anywhere. Is there a more specific name for the part I'm searching for? My whole restoration project is kinda hanging on me finding an intake manifold. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Do you need a real nice one, or just one that works? I assume you also need the gasket, bolts, clamp. etc.?

This guy has a new one in stock (it isn't cheap):

... and this guy may be willing to pull his off the motor and sell it separately; I've done this several times with CR125 manifolds:

I'm surprised there aren't any on eBay. Over the past couple of years I must have seen 20 or more for sale there, either separately or with a carb or cylinder attached.

I may have one in my parts box, but I believe it's been repaired.

I just need one that works for the moment, luckily I got the bolts and making a gasket isn't hard. I was thinking of having a guy I know at a machine shop make me an adapter that bolts on to the engine and then I could attach a heater hose from it to the carb kinda like the manifold that the pipe goes on to.
