Looks like the fittings for my compression tester. Maybe someone left it in there. Do all the plugs have that end on them? I don't know.... I don't think they should be there though.

They are non foulers for cars that burn oil. They are supposed to keep the oil from fouling the plug. Did you just buy the car?

Yes, I just bought it. However, there was two of these out of eight. Both on the right bank. Neither of these had oil on them to warrant the need for them.

Well, after ya drive it a while there might be. Take them off and run w/o them and keep an eye on them. How many miles on the motor? Does it smoke out the t-pipe at all?

Not sure the mileage of the motor. It was a transplant. There is no smoke from the pipes. I would think the end of the non-foulers would be coated with oil if it was bad.
