Any part numbers for this item from Auto Zone? Have my intake off for a gasket replacement and pulled the oem fitting off. PIA to take off, I thought it was going crack the intake. It was on there TIGHT.

Those quick connects are junk. I have never been able to take one off and the threads not break off inside. It's a pain getting broken threads out.
