brake booster noise

i got this noise that sounds like its coming from my brake booster I thought it was the vac line, but i put a clamp on it to help seal it, but still made noise and it gets worse when i turn on my a/c which as far as i know is not connected to any of the vac related stuff.

The A/C/Heater control unit has something like four vacuum lines connected to it.....that's how the little doors open and close (defrost, dash, floor, temp mix, etc).
I suspect a hose is broken or come off.

I had a brake booster rust out. Try and remove vaccum line from booster and wrap electrical tape around it. If the noise is still there than it is something else. I just removed it and made it manual brakes till I got a replacement. My $.02
