You might look for a large black jobber du that looks like a inline gas filter in your vacuum line running to the brake booster. I believe its a check valve that allows flow in only one direction.

I want to say voltage regulator, but I am at a loss for how you would test it.

Found this with google.

Sounds reasonable.
