Weird boost problem longish

Hi,
I have an 88 SPG with 200k on it. I blew out one of the rubber intake manifold bushing things Sunday but I replaced it with a new one. A few hours later I was driving and at about half yellow boost I heard a really high pitched whistle and lost all boost. It drives ok until it starts to boost, then it makes a sound that is almost like blowing over the top of a bottle and makes no boost. Nothing on the gauge, no pull, nothing.
I was poking around the intake plumbing and it all seems to be attached fine. The only oddity that I noticed is alot of black gunk on one upper corner of the otherwise fairly clean intercooler.
I have a couple of questions: First, could the intercooler have a leak causing the black gunk and the weird no boost? And second if thats not it what else might it be?
Thanks alot
