You could always just run new vacuum line from one point to the next. Mine was replaced even before I bought it so I don't know. One way to find leaks is to spray carb cleaner all around the vacuum lines while the car is running. If there is a change in the way the car idles then you know to look for a leak. It doesn't take much of the cleaner so don't douse everything.

Is the car throwing any codes for the check CEL?
 
Do you know where I can find a diagram of vacuum lines ? It's not throwing me any codes at all..
