Default infamous Intake manifold leak



Those are just about all the emotions I felt today while dealing with this damn car..


I figured it would be about a 4 hour job tops and it has now turned into 2-3 day job because I always end up breaking ****.

First off:
I broke a the hose that goes from the TB to the passenger side valve cover, it has a little bit of oil in it.. What is it called? Where can I get a replacement? Is oil bad?

Second:
I broke the EVAP canister purge solenoid valve hose that connects to the EVAP canister. Where do I get a replacement? I broke it right next the TB.

the oil is normal, your pcv system vents into the throttle body. The local autoparts store should have both hoses.

(some intake ports are black and others are clean)
