Vehicle engine systems and protectors for such systems are presented. The protector can include a first end that is operatively connected to an intake manifold of the engine system. The protector can include a second end positioned between a fuel component of the engine system and a vehicle firewall. The protector can include one or more hooks that extend from an outer surface of the protector near the second end. The hooks are configured to engage the vehicle firewall during an impact collision. In one or more arrangements, the hooks can be configured to pierce through the vehicle firewall during the impact collision.
