I can't find the name of this metal fitting anywhere. I know it's the fitting for the vacuum line to the brake booster, but the end is all jacked up and causing a vacuum leak. I need a new one, does anyone know where to get one or any alternates? Thanks

Hey, for the exact name, you can get the FSM and look it up. However, I think it's just another part of the intake and you may need to pull that from a donor car. Can you cut the jacked up end a little short and mate a new hose to that? Wait, which end is jacked up? All looks good to me in this photo...

Well, I looked in your FSM. It's just a piece of the intake manifold collector. I also tried to look at Courtesy Nissan Parts, but could not find a diagram that gave a unique part or name.

Vac/boost port fitting, they are discontinued from Nissan.
Find one from a junk yard or remove yours and hack off the nipples. Drill and tap with npt barbbed fittings.
Make a want AD in classifieds, I'm sure some parting out a Z will have one.

The right side is messed up. It won't allow to hose to go on all the way. But I appreciate the assistance guys.
