Need help identifying hose
Uploading pic's doesn't seem to be working this evening. I need to replace a hose and can't find it in PET. On the drivers side of the airbox (just below it) there is a hose with sort of a hard nipple on it. This goes into a brown hard line that goes up to a vacuum part of the CIS I believe. Off of that line there is another line about 7 inches long (so, forming a V) that goes to a line that's on the dirvers side of the engine bay. This is all just above the throttle linkage on top of the motor. That is the line I have to replace. It's leaking oil.
If uploading pics gets fixed, I'll upload the pic later. Todd

Looks like it's the vacuum line coming from the airbox, joining up with the line coming from the TB and then going to the Servo brake booster in front.
Tightening the clamps should solve your probem. If you want a new one, you should be able to buy it by the foot at any Auto supply store. Take the old one with you for size and tell them it's for vacuum. There shouldn't be any oil leaking from it unless you over-filled the oil and the surplus got into the airbox. Open the airbox, have a looky-see and clean out the oil.
