• the cover member has a bottomed cylindrical shape having an axis extending in an vertical direction, and includes:
• an upper hole provided at an upper end thereof and opening upward;
• a lateral hole provided on a side wall thereof and opening in a lateral direction;
• and at least one flange provided on the side wall thereof and extending in the vertical direction,
• at least one of the fixed mold and the movable mold includes a flange housing groove in the separation surface, and
• when the cover member is disposed in the bent portion and the casting mold is closed, the flange is housed in the flange housing groove, and the cover member is held in a state where a gap is formed between the inner wall of the bent portion and an outer wall of the cover member.
