Default Boost leak??

yea so last night i had a massive boost leak the car was going nuts, the cat was glowing read when i opend the hood to look at what the hell was going on but it was pitch black, i could hear it but i couldnt see it, I attached a pic whit the general area as to where the leak was, i started moving vacume lines around and it stopped but i have no clue what it was or where it was. maybe someone could shed some light on this for me..

There's a few vacuum lines around there with a hard Y pipe that's known to leak. Good luck.
