Hello everyone. I have a D16Y7 in a 2000 Civic. Completely stock, with no upgrades, and doing a head gasket replacement on it. Has anyone had any luck with finding a replacement for this fitting? I am having a hard time finding them.
Any info before I try to tap it for a threaded fitting would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

yep. tap for a barb fitting, use a short piece of hose with a plastic T to bring it back to a single large and single small barb.

Tapping it is.

Russell 697030 is probably the best fitting for the job. 3/8” NPT to 17mm barb, plus a 1/8” NPT port for IACV line or to add a gauge

If it was mine, spare parts and tools I currently have on hand are a piece of aluminum tubing and a TIG welder lol.

But yes, tapping and threading a barb fitting into it is the most straightforward way to do it without replacing the intake or welding anything.
