Don't anyone every do that , unless you want to make leaks. That's just 100% bad info lol.

Update: you sons of guns were right.

It's in the accessory system

Fairly certain it's the AC bypass pulley. I sprayed the bearing area with WD to shut her up until a new pulley comes.

I think that should do it- but I will update post "fix"

Really? I wasn't suggesting directly spaying the vacuum lines and certainly not SOAKING them. A LIGHT fog would do the trick.
If that is still bad advice, I apologize. Have read this same suggestion offered multiple times in various forums.

Well now you'll be able to straiten them all out with confidence. Say absolutely not, you'll do more damage then good as fogging works it way between the boot and the line causing a slimy chemical reaction that compromises the seal. That said, it should be repaired as it will get worse with time. To repair you clean the line w/spirits then soak the boot and line in MEK. Then shake it out while it drys. That will shrink the boot onto the line for an air tight connection.
The proper way to check vac problems is to smoke test. Cheap kits are readily available at most 3rd party suppliers.

You can also probe for leaks w/propane, but IME, that doesn't always work, SMOKE nets much better results.

Hows that ? You can copy and paste that if you want, - uknow, for all those in denial.
