heater box vacumn can

does anyone know where to buy the vacuum can that goes above the blower motor that has two nipples on it that runs the heater box vacuum. The ones on ebay look too tall compared to the ones I see on your trucks in pictures of a/c help.

Doesn't look exactly like the original, but sizing is pretty accurate:

That is the other one for the cruise. I need the one with one with a inlet and outlet. Ebay sells them they just look to big.

This one is just a single inlet and outlet.

I’ve got this extra one you can have for the price of
shipping. I ended up using an OG one I pulled off another truck.

Here is a pic of the one on my 75. It does have two hoses. IIRC - I have seen the one hose round ones on later trucks. Maybe they moved the check valve out of the tank?

Mine is the same- front hose goes to the intake manifold port, rear hose goes into the firewall possibly to the heater controls or the cowl valve I can't remember which. Classic Industries sells reproduction vacuum tanks like the one mikentosh posted.
