Help identifying vacuum line

1996 Aerostar XLT 3.0L engine. Black and white vacuum lines come out into engine compartment near heater motor each into a T, both go right & left. My left branch Black(maybe 15" long) is broken. It goes to the left side of the A/C condenser to a brass looking controller where it terminates. I need to determine the size, description, etc so that I can replace it. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Ok...fixed it. It was the vacuum line that runs the Heater Control Valve.

So it was hooked to the water hoses to the heater. Amazon has vacuum lines and splices although I usually just get mine at the junkyard.
