I got ahold of Jason at 1stsubaruparts.com and he said there were none available in these United States, plus the price was outrageous.
What should I do? The car seemed to run pretty strong before I decided it needed all it's vacuum hoses replaced.

Steve It may suppose to be like that. If it is a slow leak, it may be there to allow the vacuum to bleed off when the solenoid, turns the valve off.
Maybe someone with a spare could "suck it and see" if they are all like that. The EGR has that sort of leak.
