Just Purchased 94 F-250 - Couple Questions

to address #3, yes the columns do have bearings that wear out. Ford sells a kit to rebuild the column and it comes with instructions HOWEVER, before you go through the hassle, pull the plastic covers off and inspect the actual steering shaft. On one I rebuilt, the shaft was so worn from being used with bad bearings that the actual slots the snap rings sit in were basically gone. I ended up having the tack weld the snap rings to the shaft in order for them to hold. Ford also sells whole columns and they are not that pricey. They were used for many years and are available.

Ok, Call me crazy.
Found this guy's video. Around 23-26 seconds in, you can see the valve where my rubber hose is connected has nothing connected to it.
So I guess the Previous Owner hooked up the line to something that should be open to atmosphere, as opposed to the valve cover that should have filtered air?

On my 94, the nipple on the oil filler is connected to the filter in the lower half of the air cleaner box. the center nipple on the vacuum tree is connected to the brake booster and the forward single nipple on the manifold in connected to the PCV valve on the passenger side valve cover. I know the pictures you have show it going to the back of the intake, but mine does not even have an opening there for anything. May have been a running change during the model year.
