So if he wasn't removing stuff from the engine bay, then the only easily noticed ccv is the vent tube. Not squishy, unless it's an insulated tube and he thinks that's rubber...it's not...just a foam layer over a hard plastic (corregated) vent tube.

brb with pic for you in case you're interested...

Were you the one that lost his ring while picking up your wife from airport? If so...glad you finally got it!

#2 is vent pipe...#4 is the drain hose I thought he might have meant.
