Default Question on a part

What is the part bolted to the inner fender, under the battery? Mine has a broken vacuum line near it and I'm trying to find out if it should go to that.

Cruise control servo. You can buy a roll of vacuum line and I believe the parts stores carry the rubber elbows also. You could also use some rubber hose that is the correct diameter to squeeze over the plastic line to patch it. The common cause for that line breaking is battery acid dripping. Check the canister over to see if it has any holes melted in it.
