You couldn't put it any better.
Should I decide to do the vacuum thing since I cannot find or both my hands and head are too big to find the unused port at the back of the engine. I have decided to use the hose going to the brake booster (the last piece before the check valve) Now here is my thinking, I am not going to just wack a hose without thought as to how to go back to stock so I did a little research and found the part # of that hose (actually the entire hose not just the small piece) that is how it comes) So I am going to remove my original factory hose and keep it safely somewhere while I wack this one #ACDelco #176-1726 GM Part # 22784424
I am a prime member, Amazon will have it shipped for less than 30 bucks.

I am always open to suggestions. Why would I spend 30 bucks instead of wack my original hose?. Well you never know when you want to sell your car in a hurry because someone is also trying to sell you a Z06 in a hurry (Trust me it happens --lol). Like Steve mentioned, unexplained mods just scares the pants off me.
