That's correct, but very doubtful any GM dealers are going to stock it, if they even still have a part number for it. There haven't been a carbs with hot air tubes on GM cars for close to 30-35 years. Salvage yard parts would be very brittle by now if you found a used one, likely shred if you tried to remove it.

A quick search shows you can buy it online in rolls or lengths, Google high temp red silicone hose 1/4 inch, so it is available if needed.

You asked if the chevy push on style could be adapted to a Pontiac flared fitting. Yes, if you used a short piece of the flared pipe and butted the end to the chevy pipe and slid a piece of the silicone hose over both pipe ends.
