Now why would this be covered in Duck tape? (1992 740 turbo ) (i.imgur.com)

Hey, so I’m tight on funds and decided to try replacing my cracked radiator myself. Anyway as I’m in the middle of hooking up the new one I noticed this part that’s wrapped up in duck/speed tape.

Should I be concerned about this? I think I may have noticed this years ago before I knew that this kind of tape is pretty combustible/flammable.

It looks like this is the diagram for it. https://parts.volvocarsmallofgeorgia.com/a/Volvo_1992_740-23l-Fuel-Injected-Turbo/_51507_5701272/Carbon-filter-with-fittings/GR-55108.html

I'd put this on my replace "eventually" list tbh or just find a nice one at a junkyard.
