I replaced a vacuum line I broke when I started rebuilding my fuel system and I can't remember where this thing terminates. I've felt all over the driver side of the intake and can't find a nipple or fitting anywhere. I've traced the line in question in blue on the picture below.

Can someone tell me where this thing terminates?

It's a small picture, but it looks like the one that terminates under the w-pipe at the nipple beneath the butterfly valves

Your suspicion is correct, there is a nipple on the front of the intake, but it's a little hard to spot when it's assembled.

Keep peering in there at various angles and you'll find it directly underneath the W pipe. I don't think I have a picture handy sorry.

Correction I do have a photograph I took that happens to show this...

Harbor Freight has a long handled needlenose that's great quality and cheap. Perfect for getting that line back on if you forget! <like I've done>
