What did you do to your 10th gen today?

Looking for a Henway.

Well, had a little time today to kill before work so figured I would go see if I could fix the P0171.174 codes.
Took all vacuum hoses of, air filter intake and tubes, pcv hose etc, all hoses look fine. I even made sure all the fuel injectors were fully seated (the were). The only thing that seems to be out of whack is the PCV connector on the manifold.
Rockauto got back to me and said there is no o-ring that is supposed to be on it, but I am definitely getting a vacuum leak at that connection. I can spray carb cleaner at the connector and the idle changes. It is not the hose or connector, because I can spray those separately and idle is fine. I can wiggle the connector and idle changes also. It is fully seated correctly, so that is not it.
I am waiting to hear from Dorman hopefully Monday. If they say no o-ring is needed, I am either going to take the connector off and go find an o-ring that fits or just get some gasket maker and seal it up that way.
On another side note, when I got off work this morning, we had a major temperature drop and I ended up with condensation on my sun shade, when I took it off, a lot of water went into the auto headlight sensor. It started clicking like crazy and my headlights would not turn off no matter what the switch position was in, they would just sometimes turn off. I just pulled the relay for the auto headlights and they are staying off now, and the regular on off works fine.

I am not that worried about it right now, the CEL is what is ticking me off right now to the point of wanting to sell (as well as a few other things).
But yes, I do know where another one is
