OM642 EGR / throttle body vacuum connector?


Servo with vacuum inlet on the bottom.
Dear diesel experts,
I am finishing up the oil cooler leak repair (2 days and counting) All looks good on my 2011 E350, except I cannot figure out what kind of vacuum hose was originally connected to the servo attached beneath the EGR pipe. The servo is operating a small 1" round flap, and there is a vacuum port. However, I can't see any small stray tubes around this place, and frankly I don't remember taking any off during the disassembly. Is it optional (the flap is normally open)?
Thanks!

Unhappy Found it, but a new riddle...

Apparently, the part is MB A 642 140 14 63 (changeover flap).
Still, there is no trace of the part (switch over valve) that it is supposed to be connected to it via a vacuum hose. Wonder if this valve is optional on my OM642 version -- there are no hoses connected to the vacuum pump, besides the brake assist line (A 212 430 18 29). Did anyone see this valve actually installed near the throttle body assembly?

This engine has NO THROTTLE
I have bunch of pictures I took on my 2008 engine when I work on it, but can't locate such part.
But between year of my engine to the year of your engine MB switched to DEF, so that could create lot of changes.

Where would this switch over valve be located? I am also struggling to find the vacuum line.
