Yes, that's it, and yes it is on the left side. On a 2WD truck it's easy to get to. On a 4x4 it's a little tougher, unless the front prop shaft is removed.

It's best to do this with the exhaust COLD. Just another helpful tech-tip.....

It's a 60E out of a '97 K1500 Suburban. It's a buildable core that I have laying around for "someday", that I will probably never need.
