John........early N-engines sparkie-wires were NOT very "water-proof" and needed extra protection from the elements provided by the tube. Modern copper-core silicon insulated sparkie wires are SOOooo much better. So unless yer rebuilding a trailer queen or are sphincterly challenged, I would NOT bother to putta tube on the engine.
