Note that the hole for this tube is visible from the *inside* of the air housing if you wedge the metering plate open and shine a light down and to the left. This is actually a big help.
Also be aware that the o-ring is held in place by a brass top-hat retainer pressed into the housing. Mine was missing, making it impossible to keep the 0-ring properly positioned. I didn't know this part existed until Rob Grady suggested I check for it.

To see the hole in the bottom of the fuel housing that the tube from the IAC motor goes into. Although Hank noted to me that you can also see it from above with a sufficiently bright light. I just recall that finding the hole with the o-ring where that tube goes to be a tremendous pain.

Im wondering what the mirror is for. It looks to be like the two rubber hoses connected on both sides are in reasonably accessable location, unless there is something else im missing. thanx

It's quite do-able though. See adjacent post for the pitfalls. To avoid dirt clean everything before you start taking things apart.
