Doesn't sound good but should be an easy fix
It's the oil feed to the vacuum pump and has either come loose or fractured

it was rubbing on something tim, the bottom hose.............does the steering arm come through above it cos it was that that it was rubbing on......... looks to me that its due to the body lift so beware and be shure to check snoopy |

I did mate - and re-shaped the hydraulic hoses that go near the bottom hose
