Hello Good People,
Hoping all is well for Everyone.

Auh today seemed like a comfortable day to install the new silicon vacuum lines I picked up back in Dec2019.

After giving the engine a look over I was I found and replaced one short line from the Plenum to the regulator in the rear of the engine on the driver side.

The remaining hoses dont appear to come off so easily or I could be mistaking them for vacuum lines when they are not. Or are they? I have looked at a couple of vacuum routing diagrams but those diagram dont seem to resemble my setup.

Included are images from my engine bay.
The first image with the blue hose is the one I did. I am totally missing this and need your help. Feel free to draw on the images to drive this into my head so I know.

T.I.A.

that one and the one from the driver side valve cover to the airbox are the only soft vacuum lines on that motor. The only other vacuum lines you could replace with that hose are all related to the cruise control.

Thanks pdxrovermech for the response.
I was scratching my head bigtime trying to figure this one out.
So I will replace the driver side valve cover to the airbox hose and it looks like I will have hose left over unless I use the rest to replace the cruise control setup. Might not be a bad idea to mustard some energy at getting that working again.

Thanks

P.S.
I found these vacuum diagrams confusing, probably because I wasn't seeing the same setup under the hood
