Broken Fuel Line! Help! Well, while trying to remove my intake manifold I broke this part on the driver's side of the engine. I'm not sure what it's properly called but I need a new one and a new fuel line I'm thinking. If anyone has one or knows where to get one please let me know!

I have one, but I'd just delete the damn thing. Do you have tuning software?
You can just delete that solenoid and run a hose from the metal hard line terminating somewhere as a vent. That's the EVAP solenoid/line, it vents fuel vapors into the manifold to be burned. If you have tuning software, you can delete the EVAP codes/fuel tank pressure sensor codes and run without it. If you can't delete the codes, the SES light will come on when it's unplugged.
Looks to me like you'll need a whole new solenoid, as the nub on it broke off inside the line. You can remove that broken off piece and the line itself should be fine. I say pull the piece out, and JB weld it back on.
