Default Transfer case vacuum housing

The vacuum switch housing for my transfer is solid and not threaded. Anyone encounter this issue? Seems really strange to me.

Fair enough here's he best one I could come up with. This hole here near the speedometer cable in the rear retainer should be open and threaded... But it's not

I'll take a better look at it when I get home and try to get some better pics to put up on here. If anything it'll be back to the jy later today to try to pick up the retainer piece
