    Need a bit more info detail. Is that the fitting on the back of the intake, that the main, large vacuum hose connects to? If so, it just needs a piece of 5/8"(I think) hose from that fitting, to your brake booster.

    I ordered a new fitting from the dealership. It was 5 bucks. There is a different one that fits on the back of the intake. Its smaller then that one. Dont try and pry that cap off thats on the back of the intake.

    Here is a picture of a printout I got from the dealership. if you look at the back of the intake there is a different fitting, the one I was talking about that goes in the brake booster spot. Its part #4. If you wanna print it out and take it to the dealership im sure they could order it for you asap
