I put a layer of shrink tubing over the split rubber, maybe it will make a slight improvement. The rubber elbow looks like it fits into the vacuum control valve. I hope FastLane has or can get that part and that I don't have to take the thing apart to get the new one in.

You bet right.
Shrink tubing? WTF. Go out and get the proper hoses and replace the old crap under there. You'll never get smooth shifts until you do.
The '86 required all new rubber to function properly. It slammed into gears when I first purchased it.
