I need a little help in getting this figured out. My car had the bumpers in these holes but some have a drain tube. The PET shows the same part number in 2 applications. One to stop the upward travel on the engine deck lid and the other in this location. I have yet to find where the drain tubes are in the PET. Is there possibly a variation in years?

These are the bumper/buffer to prevent slamming of the lids, as shown in your pix of the PET for them -

.

These are the drain tubes for the front trunk floor, which I don't know if Porsche still has them (same part as the 911/912 headlight bucket drain tube, so they may still have them), & 914Rubber/Mikey914 also makes some good repros too -

Here is a link to the 914Rubber Repro one FYI - there were supposed to be 2 in every 914-6/914-4 AFAIK, & they go in the 2 trunk floor holes fore [Edit] behind & further aft of the spare tire tie-down's captive nut (see the 2 yellow circles in the pic below).

I don't have the 914 PET part number handy, since they tend to drop out parts from the PET as they go NLA. In the 911 headlight bucket drain tube application, it is p/n: 911.631.259.02 - probably the same p/n in the 914 or else a PCG p/n.
