Fwiw, bank 1 vac leaks have been the bane of existence for many forum members over the years. That circuit is complicated, there are a bunch of parts, ALL of them are nearly impossible to access without removing the intakes (at the very least the plenum and resonance tubes), and all can fail. I was recently having a sidebar with Stl about deleting that whole circuit if possible, and when he asked me why I said to prevent vac leaks down the road lol.
