CCV hose leak (photo)

Right there in the back. CCV hose seems to be leaking on this 4.0.

Good morning folks! I need your help. I've been looking for a 2000-2005 Grand Cherokee for a while and found a 2002 Grand Cherokee with a I6 4.0 in good condition with the right price yesterday. The only thing I noticed was a leak around the CCV elbow. Considering the age and the miles on it (227K), should I expect additional problems like a gasket blowing due to additional pressure once I fix/replace the hose? I'm gonna go look at it again in the afternoon. Any suggestions/opinions are welcome.

I wouldnt worry about that too much. I bought mine with 300k on it (rebuilt motor and trans w/200k on them) and I replaced EVERYTHING vaccum wise and runs great. At 227k you can expect some dry rot in the vaccum lines and such. No big deal and cheap repairs
