Mercruiser 165 part ID

[MR fisher]

Could someone please help me ID this part for replacement? When I gave a gentle tug on the line that runs from the engine manifold to the vacuum gauge at the helm, the line broke off. It must have already been cracked. I think I need to replace the whole line. About 25 ft. When I've been doing Google searches using terms like engine, vacuum line, engine, vacuum hose, engine vacuum tube , I haven't been able to find what I'm looking for.

if you use your vacuum gauge fix it, if not put a 1/8npt plug in the manifold

I'm thinking this fitting from Home Depot may work??

That looks like the kind of fitting that is there. I could probably even reuse mine. It is the hose/tube material that I need to replace. Mine has gotten old and brittle. I'm not sure what the specs need to be on that stuff though.

Autometer makes it. I saw it on Amazon. Google Autometer nylon tubing. I used to have an 18’ Sangster with a MC 165. Vacuum guage helped to save on gas. Gas was $.29c/litre then…I miss those days.

My bad, didn't realize it was the hose/tubing you were after!
