Needing Help!!! ok, so I changed my intake gaskets this weekend, in putting everything back together, I forgot to label any of the hoses & can't remember where they go. can anyone help point me to a diagram or pics or something?? also, the hose that goes to the back of the valve cover broke, since it is so old. anyone know what it is called so I can get the right thing at the parts store??

Go through this site and click on highlighted areas...different views of hoses/wires to both sides of intake manifold.

Regarding the hose to the valve cover. Assuming you're talking about the breather hose on the passenger side...that goes from the top of the VC to the throttle body...mine broke too, when I did my intake manifold leak fix.
I got a replacement at the dealer and it was ~$12. It didn't really have a specific name, but I'd recommend describing it to the dealer parts guy. He'll be able to pull up a diagram and you can nail it from there.

well, got everything back together, need a new vacuum hose from fpr to the manifold, but now it smokes under the hood & smells like coolant, and there is coolant under the car, along with oil..... 
maybe I should've spent the $600 in labor and took it to the shop.....the temp gauge doesn't show over 210 though after it has warmed up......
