Vacuum Leak

Hello everyone.

I know I have a vacuum leak because I can hear it. And I know that it is a common problem with these cars. I have read about so many threads that talk about vacuum leaks in Boxsters.

I looked all over the top of the engine, but I could not find it.

Is there a common problem area for vacuum leaks. What hoses should I look at specifically? Any pics would help.

I sprayed WD40 around to try to find the leak. I could not pinpoint the location, but I temporarily stopped the leak with it. That was months ago and now the leak is back. I can hear it again.

I am hoping the leak is hidden somewhere on the Intake hose because I am actually getting a new AFE Intake Hose with the AFE Performance Intake soon and I am hoping that it fixes the problem at the same time.

Thanks
