P0171 - found broken vacuum hose - but is this a check valve?


Recommended Posts

Chasing a P0171 and found a broken / dry rotted vacuum hose right away. Going to replace it but noticed it has what looks like a check valve. If it is a check valve it is bad - air flows easily both ways. Can anyone verify the yellow circle in the attached image is a check valve? And if it is what is the correct orientation for flow. I do not see arrow on it. 

Thanks in advance.

Silverton, thank you. Found it about 10 mins after I posted. Left the filter and replaced the vacuum line and all is well.
