| If it's cast iron... |

...it came on all 1965 FEs including 352 pickup trucks.
I don't recall whether it's a 2V or 4V version, but both were exactly the same, other than the carb flange. Also, I believe some of these intakes had large holes for the thermostat, and some had small holes, but the casting number may have been the same for both hole sizes.
If I recall, the oil filler had disappeared from the intake manifold after 1964, and only a trace of where the filler tube was positioned remained in the manifold casting. By 1966 the oil filler features had fully disappeared.
Note the 1965 manifold was basically identical to the 1958-64 manifold, except in minor detail such as position of fittings and such. The 1965 intake was used only one year.
Because of new State and Federal emissions laws, 1966 marked a whole new era for the FE intake. The design was markedly changed in 1966, and two distinct designs resulted.
