I would certainly clean the inside first. Looks like a tab of metal sitting up on the last picture.
Not exactly sure how you would blow your motor up by installing an intake manifold???

judging by the size of the plenum I would say its probably intended for a boosted setup.

It's worth whatever you can get for it.

I'd just run it and see how it does. Do you have anything for comparison?
An intake manifold is not going to blow up your motor by itself, just make sure it seals to the head and the welds don't leak.

Run it, make some big numbers, and it will be worth more

Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks to me like you either have a old Venom intake manifold or a obx r unit, but for 20 bucks it's a steal none the less.

i think you could get between 175-325 for that manifold once you get it polished up, id try to clean up inside it with some brake cleaner give it a good spray and take out any imperfections.

If you have a turbo car id say it would make some whp, but N/a it would lose power on a small 1.6 b16. Good find for sure

I have never seen an iacv flange like that before. They just dug out a trench to suck unfiltered air from the atmosphere.
