what pipe is this?

to the right of the washer fluid bottle, there are 4 pipes, what pipe is the bottom left one? i can get my amp wire through that, and was wondering if it would be bad to run a power wire next to that pipe.

it won't let me upload the photo

Found the below pic in another thread. The ones to the right look like AC lines. Did you also look at THIS thread?

yeah that's the area i'm talking about, it should be behind the second bottle on the right.

quote from stealthtl " I used an easier way thru the firewall - about six inches inboard from where you drilled is a big grommet for the heater tubes.
A slit in the rubber, a coathanger thru it, then pull the wire thru - no drilling.
Don't even need to unbolt the washer bottle!"

^those are definately A/C lines...the brownish/tan colored one is the High or Hot side of the A/C. The stainless one above is the Low pressure or cold side of the A/C system

thanks, i think its safe to run it against it, cause the strut brace deal thing our cars come with imo gets hotter than that.
