Yes.... that's the "3rd fuel line" in the bundle. Peels off the fuel line bundle middle of the drivers side of the intake manifold, connects to a U-shaped metal tube that runs forward under the TB.... turns to rubber somewhere under there, and the rubber hose runs to the EVAP purge solenoid on the metal bracket on the passenger side of the intake manifold.

The photo I linked is Shoebox's 95. Your 94 will be different, with the PCV valve vacuum coming from a U-shaped hose back into the drivers side of the intake manifold, and not like the 95 running to a port under the throttle body.

The diagram also does not show the vacuum line from the second port on the passenger side of the intake manifold for the vacuum supply to the heat/AC controls check valve.

Re: Vacuum Line Diagram?

If you put a "breather" on the valve cover, you need to block off the vacuum nipple for the vent line on the throttle body. That's it. The PCV valve is on the driver's side of the intake, and will pull the air in through the breather. Its technically a minor vacuum leak, because with the vent line in place, the air that got pulled through the vent line and the PCV valve had been measured by the MAF sensor. What enters through the "breather" won't be.
