Default Boost leak - Name this part (pics)

Sorry if this has been asked before. I would search for it but i dont even know the name =\

I did the tennis ball method to search for any boost leak. I found 2 of the problems. One the problems was the in-line check valve and a hose that has a tear in it. I was hoping someone can identify this part for me so I can go ahead and order a new one. Posting alot of pictures for this one part just to make it easier.. If its still to hard to see or need more pics let me know.

pic 1 is just zoom out view so you know wheres its located
pic 2 is zoomed in to actually see it
pic 3 is the tear
pic 4 you can see the whole hose

Looks like a basic hose. Pull it and if it has a part # then there ya go, if not and im guessing not it looks like a basic hose and just find one matching size and auto parts store should get it.

that first breather hose was what i was looking at, because it does attach under the manifold and a "S" shape . I will remove it and take it to an auto part store.. Its is pretty small about 1/2 in wide and about 6-8 inch long. I wish ecs would put the specs on it so i know the size.. I live 20 mins away them but they wont let me in the store, online only and i still have to pay state tax and Shipping =[

Why have I never seen your car before? Nice to see a local guy on here! Are you actually Akron or just use that as a close city? I just moved from cuyahoga falls to brimfield!

Sweet man the only Yellow A4/S4 I know of in akron/cfalls belongs a mexican guy who has an s4 that he never drives he just leaves it sitting out in his yard! I normally don't make it up that way much, but check out "Superfly" I normally have to work but this monday the Eurovagens are having a night run from Akron to Cleveland. I plan on joining them it'd be sweet to see another A4 there!
