Uhhhh.....never mind! I found it and it was indeed the one to the manifold (far left end!!) it somehow got cut. I spliced it with a nifty nylon barbed splice. Can't wait to go for a ride now.

Reccomendation: When I changed out all my vacuum lines and hoses (TCV), I purchased a set of color tape and wrapped them to the correspondant hoses. Blue, Red, Yellow, and even white tape...this works as a reminder.
