Vacuum Re-run

So, upon buying my '95 F-250, I discovered that Ford used cheap plastic vacuum lines. I've broken two now, one above my 5th & 6th cylinder spark plug (it's green), and one next to my heater lines (pink/red). What I'm wondering is:
A. can I replace these with with standard rubber vacuum lines.
B. where does this pink/red one run? I can't find it without breaking off more of it.

18-20' of 5/32 vacuum line will fix it all. There's a thread for replacing the entire thing.

No answer for pt 2 but at least it bumps up your thread!

A link to what? The vacuum tubing referenced above can be found at most good auto part stores. Some places have it in bulk, others pre-packaged.

There should be a vacuum line diagram under the hood.
