It's a little solenoid that switches the vacume to the charcole canister, it hides under the intake manifold just behind the steering pump.
Will have to price a new one, sounds like it's not worth chasing a secondhand one.

Hint: when you replace it mount it above the manifold or on the strut tower. Leave the old one where it is. Saves having to pull the manifold off.
