Default broken vac. connector

Well i was just hooking everything up on my motor when i noticed this connector was completly snapped off. (this isn't a pic. of my car, but that metal piece is flush with the rest of the intake mani

Go to the junkyard and find that vacuum port on an intake mani.
Those fittings can be heated up and removed with mapp gas and channel locks. Just heat it up, then pull and twist at the same time. If you do this take a fire extinguisher. After i found one at the junkyard, i took it to a machine shop and they fixed it. The best way to fix it IMO.
