What is this hose called?

[smak51]

Hi,

Can someone please tell me what is the name of the pipe that goes in the hole behind the brake oil reservoir, as highlighted in the attached picture. It's a 1995 Camaro 3.4L v6. I need to order it online.

Thanks
Saied

Its called a vacuum booster hose. It looks like your missing the check valve for the booster also.

Thanks a million peterpar. Also for pointing out the missing check valve.

I did a quick search online and unfortunately couldn't find the hose, except some used ones on eBay. The check valve and grommet are available. Can I use any standard hose for the purpose?

I suppose you could, but I think I would try to find one in a local salvage yard.

if you have the end it connects to, go out to an autozone type deal and test fit hoses use fuel hose its virtually the same thing. you can buy whatever size fits by the ft.

The hose is apparently discontinued by the manufacturer and hence I have decided to go for a used one I found on ebay. That way I can be rest assured it fits. Thanks for your help guys.
