Yup, been there, done that. You do have an alternative choice that was recommended to me by Tom Saltino: 

"purchase a "T" junction from your local parts store and grab a vacuum line coming from rear of the intake manifold.  I think I teed mine into the same line that gives the ECU intake manifold pressure. Zip tie the new line along the fuel rail towards the front of the intake.  Use a small piece of rubber vacuum line to attach the plastic line to the existing metal line	that runs to the dump valve."

I took a small brass screw with some loctite and plugged up the old hole, works like a charm !

Cheers, /James.

Has anyone ever broken the diverter valve brass nipple
off of the intake?  If so how did you go about
repairing it?  I'm planning on pulling the intake and
drilling it out.  Thanks in advance.
