Here's one possibility for you guys to check out...
It's on a 2001 5-spd & I don't know whether the hose configuration will be the same for yours.
The top picture shows a rigid plastic tube bent in a U-shape. Red circle illustrates where it was almost cut thru by rubbing on the ribs underneath the plastic shroud (shown below). That tube supplies vacuum to the brake booster, so if it leaks your brakes will be weakened.
I caught this before it cut all the way thru. I cut down the rib that did the damage & puddled a bunch of JBWeld around it to make a smooth surface to bear against the vacuum tube.
