Code:
awk '{ if (NR==14) {gsub($2, f); print} }' f="${folder}" ill_5_06.hea

BTW, I think your 'gsub()' is either incomplete and/or incorrect:
Code:
     gsub(ere,repl[,in])
           Behave like sub  (see  below),  except  that  it  will
           replace  all  occurrences  of  the  regular expression
           (like the ed utility global substitute) in  $0  or  in
           the in argument, when specified.
