Arrow Mysterious part - elbow off top of vac pump

Hey all - I can't find this part # and am eager to get to the dealer before they close to replace (I'm sure some of you understand why I don't ask their "parts desk" for assistance. I've searched realoem but it's eluding me. Anyone? (see pic attached)

I believe it comes as a whole kit, #5 in this diagram

RealOEM.com * BMW E60 545i Power brake unit depression

This hose was replace on mine as part of the brake vacuum recall campaign.
Good luck

Thanks very much. My frustration must have been blinding me.
Ordered the part, but I didn't order the gasket - #4 on the diagram. Is this gasket needed for the pipe to be replaced... I haven't opened it up to look, bit warm out today.. can anyone say whether it can be reused or not - ie. is it a sacrificial gasket.. once removed must be replaced?

4 isn't a gasket. IT is a rubber grommet and it would very unusual for it to not be reuseable.
