Help identifying a hose
Was changing the knock sensors on my 98 vette. While disconnecting hoses to the throttle, I accidentally broke one. I'm trying to find a replacement, but am not sure what it is called. It is located towards the top of the throttle and isn't very long. It is not the coolant hose. I've seen it called vent hose, but haven't had much success.
Thanks

There are THREE hoses on the C5 OEM Throttle Body. PCV Fresh air to valve cover hose and the coolant in and coolant out hoses on the bottom of the TB that warms the TB to prevent throttle blade icing.
The PCV suction hose (and PCV Valve) attaches to the fitting behind the TB on the manifold. That VENT (fresh Air Hose) hose is about 12" long if that.
