Hi
My best guess at that weird manifold device is that it was intended to intercept liquid fuel at the edge of the mixture stream and re-introduce it (hopefully in atomised form) via the pipes to further down the manifold. The idea was to improve fuel economy. Other versions had serrated teeth or gauze screens. I doubt if any of these aftermarket devices actually did very much.
Alternative suggestions welcomed !
