It should be this highlighted hose on the manifold, but still couldn't figure out its part #....
Anyone know its name or part #?
Edit: Looks like this hose is for emission control and coolant doesn't pass through it? If so, I have 2 issues then:

- The plug on Throttle Body still leaks
- Cracked hose for "VSV for EVAP"

Guess I found the part # for the VSV hose: 23829-50070. Just a FYI in case anyone needs it. It's over $30 at local dealer. Guess I will just wrap it with tape to live with it.
Continue tapping the plug now....

That is a vacuum hose and should not be leaking coolant as it should have air traveling in it. Based on the picture I would guess the water is coming from the plug below it.
The little plug on the throttle body on my 2004 LX 470 popped out and spewed coolant. I tapped the plug in flush as best I could on the side of the road and added coolant, but it is still seeping. Also, when I put it in, I put it in with the hole down (pretty sure that is wrong)... I haven't tried JB weld yet, I was really hoping the plug would pressure fit in and seal up...
Can you buy replacement plugs? Any suggestions on getting the old one out (drill it). I would really like to fix this right, but without buying a whole new throttle body...
Any suggestions.
Thanks

Has anyone who has preformed the "quarter - JB weld" method to fix this had any other problem with it? My throttle body is seeping now too. I have no apprehension of doing this fix, I just want to make sure it has had good results so I can actually get by with a fix under a few bucks.
Wow!! A possible repair on the Cruiser for under $5. Somebody pinch me

Joined the blown throttlebody plug club this morning. In central Texas and we hard our few days of hard freeze last week.
Did find a more info about it on a tundra forum that shed some more light on the purpose of the plug (manufacturing purpose possibly). Would love to tap it and put a threaded plug in there but the JB-weld/quarter solution will be what I do tonight. Got lucky and the plug landed on the top of the block and rode there for about 5 miles.
On a separate note, can anyone confirm what the hose I have circled below is? It is all cracked up and from looking at diagrams I can't clearly tell what system it is/what is is for. Goes from the drivers side head to the throttle body.

Thanks @flintknapper, you wouldn't happen to know the PN for that hose off the top of your head would you? Mine is cracked to hell, originally thought that was my leak until i saw the well polished hole full of coolant.
PCV valve hose, might want to replace the valve on the valve cover as well, or at least remove and clean. Part# 1226150050

Thanks @Patron100LC pretty sure I wouldn't have figured out near soon enough.
