Trying to find replacement for a broken vacuum connector

I am in the middle of disassembling my $1200 2nd gen 4Runners engine for a head gasket repair and it’s old. Because it is so old a lot of plastics and rubber hoses are breaking and snapping. I snapped what looks like a vacuum connector and have no idea where I could get a new one could anyone help. It is the greenish gold part it had two hose connections to it but when I pulled the hoses off they came with. I’m looking for maybe a part number or somewhere I could find what part number it is. Much appreciated.

 

Take a step back and take a pic so we can see where it is on the engine.

 

Is that ok

 

Very helpful pics, goodluck sir, beware with 'need help!' thread titles, I've seen admin parachute in and squawk about changing title if there's no emergency

 

It's a thermal vacuum switch

 

I agree, this is not considered an emergency.

 

Thanks title problem makes sense

 

Parts are getting more and more scarce for 2nd gens. Your best bet is to find one in a junkyard or pick-n-pull

 

Ya I found the exact piece so thanks to everyone but the exact ones like $80 which is bonkers so I’ll try to find a cheaper one

 

What year? There are two ‘95s in the local pick and pull I have been pulling various parts out of that I would be willing to check. One is a 3vze. I think 94 and 95 are different than earlier years?

 

It’s a 95

 

I can try to run up there in the next couple days and see if I can get it for you, not sure where you’re at as far as shipping but I’d be glad to send it for shipping cost if you want?

 

I’m in wasatch county in Utah

 

I can probably run up there Friday, I’ll shoot you a message if I get it to get your address.

 

Awesome thanks
Where are you at

 

What’s your number so we don’t have to bug everyone
