Default Vacuum help needed?

Five months ago,I had the engine replaced in my 2002 corvette,and have not driven it much. Today, it was hot enough to turn on the AC. When the blower is on high and the air is supposed to come out of the upper vents, I can only feel a slight breeze. Is it possible that a vacuum line is disconnected or misrouted not allowing the AC doors to work? Where do I find the vacuum connection to the engine? Thanks.

The vacuum connection is on the back of the intake manifold from there it is routed to the passenger side of the car below the battery and into the front fender where there are several connections, a check valve and a vacuum canister.

The connection on the back the intake is bear to get too.
