Have you attached a picture? It never loads on this end for me. It'd be very helpful to be able to see exactly what you're talking about.

What you appear to have marked is a vacuum hose. Check this page to see if you can find and highlight what it actually is if it isn't a vacuum line coming out of that pressure switch. http://www.peachparts.com/Wikka/M104WireHarness
