Evaporative Emission Canister Vaccum Line

Hello,

I was checking my engine bay in my 1987 Camaro RS and noticed a broken vacuum line. The line comes from the Evaporative Emission Canister to the rear of the the throttle body. The area that is broke is just under the throttle body on a bracket mounted onto the valve cover just in front of the oil cap. (see pictures) The vacuum line from the Evaporative Emission Canister is rubber. The line that comes off the Evaporative Emission Canister line to the rear of the throttle body is a hard plastic line.

How hard is it to fix and what parts do I need? What effect does this line have on the engine if any?

Thanks Tim
