what are you trying to figure out
if your brake booster will still work if you have a boosted motor

There should be a check valve in the middle of the vac line between the intake mani and booster. You can use the hose between the valve and the intake for a vaccum source for bov/wastegate/gauges/etc. you cannot use the hose from the valve to the booster, then you'd have no brakes.

Run the vac block on that 3/8" hose between the check valve and the intake mani
