Recently bought a 74 Westy. No gas heater is installed, but there is a flexible line for the heat, an outlet in the closet, and a relay for it. Was this a common thing? No stand for the heater, other ducting, etc. No knob on dash either

The relay is for that heat booster fan dangling from the roof of the engine compartment.

That heater duct isn't a stock VW installation, maybe it was for an aftermarket unit like a Stewart Warner?, any exhaust holes in the LH battery tray?
