buy a smoke machine something like this to find out where your air leak is. https://www.ebay.com/itm/16446924553...075f%7Ciid%3A1

Welcome to the Forum !!!...Your freeze frame data shows the DTC's set at idle which would leave me to believe you may have a vacuum leak...RPM seems kind of high too at 981...has any maintenance been done to the car lately ??...to verify a vacuum leak run the engine at 3000 RPM for a few minutes...if the long term fuel trims slowly decrease you have a vacuum leak...yes, it's nice to have a smoke machine but your everyday Corvette owner doesn't own one...what you can do is spray some Brake Kleen (I use propane) around the PCV, brake Booster, purge solenoid vacuum connection at the intake manifold, intake manifold runners, air intake downstream of the MAF sensor...while spraying on a cold engine watch your SHORT term fuel trims...if they decrease quickly you found the leak...hope this helps !!...also going to move this to the Tech section.
