Default evap. purge valve

hello all i have a 2000 monte ss with the 3.8 the issue im having is the previous owner of the car needless to say wasnt very mechanically inclined and did more harm then good the 2 hoses that come off of the throttle body to the evap purge valve on the top of the motor are not the original ones for the black hose that connects the 2 to the throttle body is broken and the hoses are zip tied in one of them always falls out and ends up dripping gas so the car rarely gets driven im really just wondering if anyone has a clue of where to get the new hoses for this part from the throttle body to the purge valve?

thanks

either the junkyard or the dealer ship, the dealership will charge around 40 bucks and if you talking about what im thinking its dripping gas because of the fuel pressure regulator

That would deff be the fuel pressure regulator. Had the same problem. Either its failing or failed. But once you replace it u should be fine
