upper right of upper intake manifold. there's a black hose connected to it. the other end is screwed into the manifold itself. it's probably pretty rusty by now.

well slide the clamp down a bit..then take your wrench and unscrew it a little...doing that will break the seal with the rubber hose and then you can probably pull the hose off. then finish unscrewing the rest of it out.

open or closed...your call on that one. whatever you do..don't strip it.
