Something does not look quite right.

I need to look when it gets light out .

Yours could be different because of your AC

just get yourself a piece of hose and replace .

i doubt there is going to be a name or a hose you can ask for.

It looks like that fitting screws into the intake manifold or is it just the angle of the picture??

This could turn into a very interesting job.(pita).

I doubt the hose can be replaced without moving something.

To replace the hose the manifold might need to be loosened then the gaskets need to be replaced .

I need to look in the day light.

interesting thing the hose the OP is talking about is not on that diagram.

Nor does it look to go to the AAV.

Not having to really pull it apart I just looked.

If they feel it is by all means go for it.
