    15/16ths PCV hose from parts store.

    get two feet of it, trim it to fit and replace that hose if thats what you're concerned about.

    The line is for vacuum to the brake booster.

    Which is what gives you power brakes.

    We know what it is...its the brake booster line. If its cracked, replace it.

    so uh, where are the pics?

    to make them more snug the easiest thing to do is buy new lines.

    the senosr looking things are fuel injectors, and the piece where the hose go's on can be replaced if needed.

    the injectors can move all they like as long as the gas doesnt get out.
