Default Brake Booster Vacuum Line Removal?

Guys,
How do you remove the hard plastic vacuum line from the brake booster?
I do not want to brake anything - else that is. I snapped the plastic hose piece that is inside of this line that attaches this line to the SC - so I am now thinking that I need a new line. I can't find the line/hose online....anyone have any suggestions? Also I need to take the broken line off the car, anyone care to tell me how? The service manual doesn't get into that.
I feel really dumb as I am pretty mechanically inclined, but I can't unhook this freakin vacuum line from the brake booster! Help!

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
KrzyFast

Nobody knows how to take the vac line off the brake booster?!?
I don't feel so bad.....or is it so simple everyone refuses to answer the ridiculously simple question?

I more than likely need a new one - again so if someone knows how to find one online that would be greatly appreciated....I have searched and searched but could not find it. Arg!

If you pull the check valve out of the grommet in the booster unit it should be easier to pull the pipe from the check valve. The check valve just pulls out of the grommet as it is a vacuum and needs no further clamping.
If the pipe is hard to remove, as I suspect it might be, you may have to warm the pipe with a hair dryer a little.
