Default C6 ls2 vacume tap

I just installed a complete Z06 exhaust on my A6 vert complete with all oem vacume lines and solenoid.I have all the lines run.Everything simply snaped in place.The clips to hold the lines were allready there.My question is the last line that I installed terminates just behind the brake booster vacume line,but it has a quick connector type end on it .Is there a vacume port and another line needed to complete this connection or am I going to have to tap the booster line for vacume? There appears to be a covered tap next to the main brake booster tap on the back of the intake,but poor visibility makes it hard to tell. Thx

I think the LS2 is the same as the LS3..If so then this is what you are looking at on the back of the manifold. The little Tee, (held on with duct tape in the first picture) is what you have to get off. I got mine off by using an exacto knife and an extension I made out of a nut driver and duct tape..If you look close you can see the barb on the fitting,(second picture) and where the tee is attached there was a little groove. Using a bright flashlight, I lined up on the groove, and sawed back and forth just a bit, and the tee popped off. I didn't have to use a lot of pressure, just a sharp blade.

LS2 has that tee on the back of the manifold. Hard to get to but not impossible.

Does anyone know what the line from the vacume tap on the back of the intake to the metal tubeing that runs to the back looks like?It cant be much over 18" long. It only runs from the center rear of the intake over to where the fuel line come up from the back.
