circle it on the picture. It might be your EGR tube. In that case get the LS6 intake and your problem is solved.

Is it the one connected to your throttle body? That is your PCV

I believe the brake booster line is in the back of the intake

The arrow is pointing to the PCV hose. The brake booster hose connects to the back of your intake.

That's funny because mine did the same exact thing. Crager and I were doing some tune ups and he found that. Luckily he had hose at his house that fit! I guess your hole wasn't as big as mine because mine threw a code that the engine was running lean.

3/8" fuel line is what you need, it slips over the stock stuff perfect.
