Okay I know what that thing is now. It appears to be housing for a diaphram 
right?

Don’t know where on a ’77, but
on a ’71 it’s just a few inches from where the hose connects to the
manifold

  I don't know where it is located on a bay but on most cars
  it would be at the brake booster vacuum conection.Most of them will connect
  the vac line to the booster.I have seen a few at the manifold but that is
  unlikely.

    Don't forget to check the check value.If it's bad it
    will act just like a vacuum line off.

      yep, I went through all the lines starting with
      that nipple on the intake. I hope I don't have to take every hose off -
      because if it is a hose it will be a hairline crack on the bottom that
      you can't see until you do - I'm not cynical I am a Bus driver ; p
