Thanks for the help so far.

I know the lead is in/around the rubber "conduit" in the door frame because I can hear it leak when I open the door. Also if I attach a vaccum gauge to the vaccum hose and start the car with the door closed, it shows vaccum. If I open the door, I lose pressure.

Liner is off the door. This allowed me to test all three of the hoses to isolate the problem.

I also have rubber hose for "splicing. I issue is really the entry point of the vaccum hose. There appears to only be one small area to "intercept" the hose so I can splice in a replacement. It is behind the kick panel, left foot, drivers side. I can only see it though a small hole. It is at that point that the vaccum hose goes two directions, to the firewall and to the door. I just appears to be a near impossible place to insert a replacement.

Again thanks for your help.
