Need help identifying this part I broke
As title states. its the part that the 3 (supposed to be 4) vaccume lines are going into. I broke one of the nipples off of it trying to replace a vaccume line. Thanks you

They may call it a Vacuum Splitter, which essentially is all that is. Takes one 6mm vacuum hose from the UIM and splits it into four 4mm vacuum hoses that run to the oil injectors. Just remove the part and take it to NAPA/Autozone/etc and have them find you a replacement. You don't need to buy the $53 bullshit from Mazdatrix, and it doesn't have to have "certain angles" or anything. In fact this may be a good time to go ahead and replace all of your old OMP vacuum hoses anyway.

OIL METERING INJECTORS - each of the 4 injectors has a vacuum line that connects to a round gang block, and from there it connects with a larger vacuum hose to the upper intake manifold.

ok one more question. In the first pic there is a metal line right next to the oil injector on the right that has no vaccum line hooked up. Can anyone tell me what line hooks up to it. I looked through al the diagrams on here but found nothing on that particular line. Thanks

It's for the FPR's SOLENOID. On a series four there should be a metal nipple in that area that is slanted towards the rear of the engine a bit. That nipple gets a hose and the hose gets connected to the metal line you mention.
Take another jpg at a slightly different angle if you will. I might be wrong. There's something I'm not seeing in that first jpg.
EDIT: I stole a jpg of this forum showing the slanted nipple that goes to where you queston. Gets a hose of course.

Just spray it down real good and let it sit. Then spray it again and spray with some water pressure. A power washer would work, but the water hose with a jet nozzle was good enough for me.
