$90!! No way...
So, found a broken PCV hose, left side. Went to look for the part and came up with this:

WTF??
No way I'm spending that. Looked around and found a pre-formed WP By-Pass hose from my Mopar that has a 90 degree bend, 5/8". Cut it to length, trimmed the connectors off the Audi plastic hose leaving ~1.5" of hose on each, crammed it into the 5/8" heater hose, secured them with zip ties for good measure (was a tight fit anyways), replaced it on the car, and voila! Works like a charm.
Sorry, no pics.
If the Audi connectors are busted up, a length of 3/4" heater hose and 2 hose clamps work just as well for ~ $5.
90 friggin bucks... who they kidding?

Anyway, from both of them is coming out brown dried-up gunk. They're both almost plugged.
Great timing with your solution. I'm not spending that much (x 2) either.
Thanks, Jim.
