That makes it much clearer. I just went and checked mine, and sure enough I have that hose, I mean the foamy rubber Y-splitter connecting under the IAC (not to it) then immediately splits to one pipe which is the first on the intake snorkel right after the MAF sensor, and the other wraps under the intake manifold.
Yeah I don't know what to call, how to locate, a part # for that and now can see it's not the type of thing where you'd want big rubber hoses and a t-connector.
Next time I take my intake off, I'm going to lather that Y-boot in either silicone grease or sensor safe RTV to try to make it last longer because it looks like one of these days it's just going to tear apart otherwise.
