Thats the pickup tube for the engine. All the oil the oil pump sucks up and pumps through your motor comes through that tube.

Make sure its not too high up or you may have starvation problems with moderate oil levels.

If you're paranoid and not confident in your straightening job, by all means get another. You don't want to have that question mark in your mind when it goes back together.
