ok. figured it out... i found the hose that fell off the nipple.. put connected it and zip tied it.. but while i was doing that. do get a better grip and more workspace, i moved the coolant res out of the way.. and when i grabbed the underside of it. my hand was covered in oil or grease... i mean covered.. i was like WTF. then looked at that valve. and the eblow connecting to it exploded... i was like... oh ****! so i duct taped it for now until i get a chance to go to a dealer to pick a new one up...

see if you can get the size of the hose, then go buy like a fuel hose and replace it with that. that bent hose will cost you at least 20 from stealership.
