was cleaning my idle control valve today and carefully went to pull the hoses off to change them and a plactic pice broke off that goes into the engine, it has two hoses going into the top of it and a orangish ring around it, it would be in the line of the idle control valve in the pic. thanks

Thermo-vacuum valve. Several colors available, operating at different temperatures. Yours is Red. Fast Lane has them, call Phil if you can't find it.
