craptastic plastic egr vacuum lines

i have a 86 2.8 V6 firebird and while changing head gaskets i broke some of the plastic vacuum lines one that runs to a electric box and the one that runs from the egr valve to the back of the throttle body so i used some rubber hose and stuck them back together. well i just snapped the one that runs to the throttle body on both sides of the previous break. does anyone know where to get replacement. i'd like to replace the whole plastic vacuum harness thing but either i'm not calling it the right thing or no parts store or dealership can get it.

Advance Auto has it. It should be located with their nipple fittings/vacuum line stuff. It'll be rolled up. I'd be surprised if you can get pre-formed line anymore.

Bought some from Auto Zone yesterday. It is rolled up and you can cut as needed.$5.00. Junkyards have the preformed ones.
