   The hose your describing sounds like the one that runs to the charcoal canister under the drivers side wing.
   
   The pipe is on quick release fittings under the manifold. If you press and pull you should be able to disconnect the pipe fine. You shouldn't need to remove the inlet manifold to fix this.

   its on the passenger side, the hose run between the cam cover and the engine cover then down some where.
