brake booster line fittings

While replacing thermostat, I disturbed the very fragile brake booster line and the fitting crumbled. I have searched the archives on this, but have not seen anything on replacing the plastic fittings with the red ring embedded in the intake manifold and at the vacuum pump. these have also turned to powder and crumbled when I tried to remove the hoses, the rubber fitting at the brake booster is also falling apart. Strangely the glossy black plastic lines are holding up well, just all the interconnecting plastic bits are toast. Guess It gets hot in that location, or Saab picked some really cheesy materials, replaced all PVC6 hoses, check valves fittings and vacuum lines nearby last year.
How do I R&R these 3 connectors? I can find the rubber piece for the brake booster location hose, check valves and tee on Eeuro, but have not found a source for the red and black plastic fittings. the one Eeuro sells is for the plug to nowhere at the top of the throttle body, I have a spare one of these, but it wont work at the two locations I need to replace. Anyone know where to get these and how to replace them? Also noticed the one in front of the motor at the turbo pipe is falling apart. Thanks all.
