Here's one for the archives - Suction pump part number and updated part.
I know a few guys were asking about this part and trying to figure what the exact name and part number was. It's the 3 hose assembly that connects to the brake booster, accordian hose, and the back of the manifold. It's actually called a suction pump (part# 078-133-701-AD) and it's been updated from the original part.
Here's few pics

Closeup of updated part (you can see the rubber hose and metal clamps which were not on the original part at the connection to the accordian hose)

Original part (everything was molded into one assembly, no clamps. Ignore my attempt to epoxy the air leak)

BTW, thanks to Brian@avalon for getting me this part. Dealer wanted $140 for it. Got it from Brian for significantly less than $100.

If you can get in touch with Carson, that would be good.
Otherwise, contact avalon. I tried getting it through Carson but there was some confusion regarding what this part actually was. After a few emails going back and forth I suddenly stopped getting responses from him so I decided to contact Brian@avalon since he's always come through in the past. He didn't let me down this time either and got me the part.
