I had a leak on that hose, but the braking wasn't affected. I think there's a check valve along the way that doesn't allow the brake booster to lose vacuum.

I tried driving the car with the hose disconnected while troubleshooting, and it took a tremendous amount of force to push that pedal down, almost impossible to stop the car without that vacuum line. Never thought it would have such an impact.
