Default Found Vacuum Leak- what is it though? Picture

The little rubber hose from the intake side had a hole on the bottom and was basically melted. It connects to that valve looking thing on the left.

I do not know what these parts are called.

Can I get the little rubber hose from a auto parts place or is it a GM thing?

I also was having a P0171 code trip...Im hoping replacing this will fix it. Any help would be appreciated...thanks.

It's your PCV system. You can replace it with just regular hose from autoparts store.
