Accidentally broke this vacuum the other day next to the MAF sensor, not sure what it is, doesn't seem to affect the engine. Input is appreciated.

it looks like vacuum from intake should be able to fix fairly easy

It's the vacuum line for the power steering. You need to fix it or plug it. If not your idle will dip relatively when you're at full stop.

Thx, I plugged it with a short screw until I pick up some glue to fix the nipple...

Yup! I got my SC with a repaired nipple(whatever it's called) but then I plugged it when I changed my high pressure hose to the stainless steel braided from driftmotion.com.
