The new 1500 beetle we have bought has a rusted pre heat tube on the inlet manifold. The inlet manifold has rubber connectors halfway between the heads and carby. The pre heat tube bolts to the heat exchangers.
I apologise for not having the exact specs on whether it is single or twin port, but that may help.
The question is -
Does anyone have a replacement inlet manifold?
or is it more economically viable to weld a new section of tube in?

i think you have a twin port manifold, most likely a 1600 engine.

Whoo hoo 1600. I knew it all looked very different in the engine bay. The question still remains in regards to the rectification of the rusted pre heat tube.

I've got one Pete if you want it.
