My exhaust manifold on my SR20DET melted my master brake cylinder and fried a hole in my A/C hose. I am assuming it is the A/C hose because now my A/C doesn't blow cold air. I need to know what the A/C hose is called that runs underneath the exhaust manifold so I can replace it. I have recently thermal wrapped the manifold. I will post a picture as soon as I can. If anyone could help it would be appreciated. Thanks

It's the low pressure return line. You need to take the car to an A/C shop to properly evacuate the system before putting in refrigerant.

And don't forget to replace the drier.
