It will need to be from a 48-50 because of the throttle linkage mounting. Otherwise 51-54 would also fit if you could fab a little bracket for the linkage. They will all have 288 cast onto the front runner. One from a 327 will also fit, the runners are a bit bigger which you can view as a high performance upgrade or a greater chance for bogging when you floor it. Have one, but cant get to it till spring.

If yours is cracked on the vertical wall below the carb, that is just an exhaust gas passage and will not affect the running of the engine. You can patch that with a little steel plate, self tapping screws and some furnace cement.
