Help identifying part

Hey guys this system that seems to runs from the gas tank to each cylinder and back to this box with two wires is smoking where it branches off to the right cylinder bay. Is this the pcv system? Will replacing the pcv potentially fix the issue? Where can I find the right pipes to replace my cracked smoking ones?

It’s the air pump diverter valves, it forces air into the exhaust and not connected to the fuel tank at all.

Awesome thanks for quick response! I guess exhaust smoke is supposed to flow through there and I just have a leak? Is there any parts I should replace besides the hose that is leaking?

Exhaust shouldn’t flow through the diverter valves or past the cheack valves on the manifold air pump pipes.

Re: Help identifying part

If you have exhaust smoke anywhere in the AIR system, you've got a failed check-valve at one or both exhaust manifolds, or rusted-through pipe between the exhaust manifold and the check-valve.
