Vacuum questions on \'87 300SDL

My 1987 300SDL has only 52k miles, bought it about two months ago. When driving down the road with either the heater on (I am from the north - we have two seasons - Christmas and winter!) or the A/C either - I hear a hissing sound from time to time. NOT all the time, not real loud.

I suspect I have a vacuum leak. Ideas? Replace all the vacuum lines since the car is 14 years old?

Can this be done by a DIY person or not?

Thanks.
