It's called the "coolant crossover tube." IIRC, it *might* be a discontinued part (or perhaps the 1/4" plug on top of it was - can't remember ).

Not sure who (aftermarket) sells a chromed version - might want to check with several vendors or consider having your factory piece locally chromed to save some money.
