Okay so I need to get another hose for it old one has a crack, and that vacuum line that connects to the back of the carb I noticed that little valve that goes to that metal line is that the EGR valve I’ll be replacing?

So I’ve been told that’s the brake booster check valve that’s correct for the hose that connects to the back of the carb and the front inlet is the emission check valve?

So I’m out of options I’m going going to add on a 1inch spacer to the carb to give me the clearance I need for that check valve to clear I wish that carb on the base of the carb was a 90 pivot.
