Awww crap-- what is this thing ive broke?

So I managed to break these little things that vaccume lines and electrical plugs go into. Ive broken the vaccume nipple off the top of the one with the orange plug in it, and have broken some thing that protrudes out of the end of the one with the grey plug in it.
I would like to know what they are called, and if mazdatrix sells them (though it would be nice if I did not need them
).
edit: My car is 88 GXL mods: full exhaust, and FD alt. I was taking off my intake stuff to fix one of my siezed 6ports.

Longshoe, the FPR solenoid valve is not needed for emissions; it's part of the hot-start assist system. If you don't replace it, you'll need to bypass it. The way it is at the moment means the FPR is recieving no manifold pressure signal, so you'll be running very rich at all times except WOT.

It's running rich because of the FPR vac leak. Fixing the leak by bypassing the solenoid would be just as effective as replacing it. It is not needed for emissions.
