As i installed a new rocker gasket seal, i noticed this tube has melted and needs replacing as it has basically snapped OFF!

I was wondering if you guys could give me the name of this part so when i duck down to super cheap auto tomorrow i know what to look for, it sits under this cover (Could've taken the cover off, i know im sorry but i was in a rush to get out of there) but it connects to the bottom of the throttle body. It is the tube right below the label in this picture [SOURCE: http://forums.justcommodores.com.au...4-vt-vx-3-8l-ecotec-engine-bay-labelled.html]

Sounds like a PCV pipe or something. It's just a piece of tube, Supercheap won't have a 'part' per se, without a picture of it we won't know for sure though.

Think 1 is a purge (pcv) hose and the other is a breather hose

I just took mine off for a sample for the size and got rubber fuel line and two new hose clamps.
