Mine is similar. When I asked about it on this forum maybe 20 years ago, I was advised that the water should be aimed downstream so that it would not have any possibility of backing up into the engine (on shutdown, maybe?). When replacement time came, I duplicated what I had.

It was made out of 1 1/4 " steel water pipe. A 3/8 " piece was welded onto 6" of straight pipe to make a "Y". The 3/8" piece is where the cooling water would travel into the 1 1/4" exhaust. My question is: could this simply be a "t" shaped piece made out of 1 1/4 inch t with a reducer to fit the 3/8" connector for the cooling water. Rather than weld up a "y". Steve
