Got my car back from a front end collision.

The grill air intake was damaged and was replaced.

I was looking at the intake and it looks rather interesting.

Air seems to come from the top of the front grill AND also from the engine bay.

There is also an arrow pointing to a hole in the intake on the block side of the intake when it drops from the top of the grill. My guess is that this is to prevent water ingestion.

It's too dark to take a picture right now and I'm not sure if there is enough room to take a picture.

The part seems a bit odd. I'm wondering if I'm missing a piece.

Can someone post a picture of the part in question from service manual?
