It honestly sounds like the intercooler piping that you are talking about. One side connecets to the bottom of the intercooler on the driver side. The other Y's to the turbo and the DV.

This is the only "metal" tube I can think of underneath the radiator.

Yeah I don't think the 2.8 has any metal tubes either. I used to have one... But yeah knowing which motor would help a lot. I also don't think I have ever seen a replacement for the metal intercooler pipe anywhere.
