Intake (molded) hose 745T 700 1989


I've noticed the turbo intake hose has developed a hole where the PCV pipe connects. It is oil soaked but the turbine bearings seem OK. The vacuum line from Y pipe on top of oil trap is broken so crank gases weren't getting drawn into manifold at all.

I blew backwards threw oil trap with filler cap off and it's clear. (I DO notice that I have positive pressure from oil filler which I why I started to snoop around).

My question is this: What noticeable effect in engine performance will a hole in the turbo intake have? I was quoted $225 Canadian dollars for this hoses. Ugh.

Any comment appreciated. Thanks in advance
