Default 2 Into one crossover rubber fitting.

I removed the Intake manifold to change out the oil pressure switch and found a couple things that needed attention. One the PCV boot was cut in half leaving a gaping hole. The other thing I can't seem to find is a tube fitting on the back of the motor. under the cowl. that may be the crossover tube that has 2 tubes on one end and 1 on the other end. any idea where it can be found. Can I just use a TEE connecter? Sure glad I removed the intake. You would never found this.

I also noticed a 1/8 in plastic line that runs to a connecter on the back of the intake it is very small and short and a burger to get reattached. clean it with lacquer thinner and rap a piece of tape around it leaving a flap. you van grab that flap and plug it in much easier. anyone know what it is for?

The 1/8" black nylon line is the vacuum source for your HVAC system. It needs to be connected.
A short extension (2 or 3 inches) makes it much easier to re-attach when re-installing manifold.

The rubber y is for the pcv system. Have to order entire hose assembly from dealer or try to make one up yourself
