Default LIM Vacuum T Part #

While changing the LIM Gasket on my vehicle, the vacuum T on the LIM was shattered. I have looked at local auto stores and they do not carry them anywhere. I was hoping to find the exact one before I decide to modify that area. Does anyone know where I could get that part, and if there is a part number, what it is.

If it'* the big T below the SC snout, then it'* a dealer only part. I just had to replace mine after a valve cover gasket job. It comes as a whole assembly. It'* a series of hard vacuum lines and a few T'*.
The GM part number is as follows: 24508742
List price is a touch over $26.
It is worth the price. I found that the other T'* were showing signs of deterioration once I had pulled them off.

Thanks for the info, I did stop by the GM dealer and found that part, difficult to spend $26 on that whole thing when I only need the T, but I might have to. Maybe hit the local junk yard and see if I can pull the T, or re design with parts from the local auto parts store, we will see, thanks again!

The problem with going used with something like this is you're likely to get something that'* only marginally better than what you already have. These T'* seem to dry rot due to the under hood temps and get extremely brittle over time. I tried the "cobble something together" plan, and I went to the dealership and bought the factory part anyways. I don't think you'll be happy with the Autozone special. Spend the $$ for the insurance.

Thanks everyone, I ended up going the dealer route (as difficult as that is) with the part mentioned, all is back to normal, at least with that part of the car...
