Need help with hose identification

Hose appears collapsed, looks like it's coming from vacuum pump to brake booster? I also though it was split, I rubbed some a/c leak bubbles liquid on it but nothing, I don't think.

Yes, its one of the brake boosters vacuum pipes. Part 5 on the diagram. FYI you'l need new clamps since those in your pic are one time use.

You could use regular screw type hose clamps if you don't have hose clamp pliers for the new one time use style clamps. As long as it doesn't leak it should be fine.
