Where to get vacuum for gauge?

Wheres the best place to get vaccum for a vaccum gauge? The only ones I see are for the purge valve and the booster.

On the driveside there is a vacuum line that goes from the fuel purge selonoid to the intake. It's a hard plastic line. It has clips that need to be opened with a flathead screwdriver. I got some 3/8 vacuum line and a T- fitting for this.

No dont' cut the plastic line just remove it. Then cut a few inches of vacuum line and install that into the intake. Then install the t-fitting into this line and then cut some more vacuum line to go from the t to the fuel purge.
