This site sells 'em for $125, that's a little rich for my blood.
I'll take my chances at the boneyard, maybe I'll pull 2 just in case.
I'll tackle the door locks and the ACC tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes.

Thanks Again.
I think you have it right - shutoff valve. If the vacuum pump is bad the oil will originate from the master brake line.
