The round one...

There should be a black nylon vacuum line and a gray nylon vacuum line on the EGR vacuum connector. The black line (upper position) connects to the EGR valve pilot.

Regular rubber vacuum line should work just fine. You can also get the hard nylon tubing (but maybe not in gray) at many parts stores if you want an original look and lines that last another 15 years.

you can get all the vacuum lines from a dealer bent and everything for real cheap I hear. I personally went with silicone vacuum lines from summit and replaced them all like that it was like a 24 dollar thing and I had to get 2 sets to run it all. I hope that helps alittle.
