main intake manifold connector from IAC valve

I've been trying to figure out an issue on my 85 SPG where the main brass elbow connector that inserts into the intake manifold from the IAC valve (and also has the small vacuum hose connection going to the PCV valve)keeps blowing out of the manifold under boost. The rubber grommet in the manifold is the correct part and is brand new, as is the PCV valve. The connector itself is a brass elbow that looks original although I'm not sure. It was originally epoxied into the manifold and had no grommet whatsoever. Unfortunately it was leaking with the epoxy so I took all of that nasty mess out and put the correct new grommet in. Now under boost it blows out of the manifold. Does anyone have a picture of the brass elbow fitting so I can see if the one I've got is correct? I think on my previous 85 900 turbo this fitting was actually plastic but I could be wrong. Mainly I just need to know how the portion of the fitting that fits into the grommet and goes into the manifold is shaped as it appears the one on my fitting has been sanded down, probably when it was epoxied in by a previous owner.
Thanks,
Matt
