What's on the other side of the Pressure Sensor hose?

I've been plagued by a 1498 code for a few weeks now. I've purchased a bunch of the possible problem pieces (like the intake duct) from ECS but one of the threads mentioned that the O ring (perhaps attached to this piece) needed to be replaced.

But for the life of me I can't find what this attaches too on any drawings (SC or intake duct on one side - but what on the black plastic side?). Is there an O ring? Can someone point me to the drawings & parts?

any chance it's the Manifold Air Pressure sensor (is that also called the MAP sensor)?
Part #7 and O ring #9

Not mistaken that end inserts into SC itself. There is a part that this tube fits into (Supercharger Tube Clip) tends to break but usually only from servicing issues. Would not imagine it being issue here unless SC has been recently serviced.

Thanks, no servicing has been done at all. The 1498 was a spontaneous code and picked up another one code as well (1237) last night

So to continue on the thread (documenting it for any future reference), There are two sensors (#7 on the illustration in post 2 above). They have different part numbers.

The "rearward" one is attached to the black part of the pressure tube on post #1 (referred to as the MAP). It is near the thermostat on the engine.

The other one is on the front of the engine mounted near/by/to the Super Charger (called the TMAP).

Both have two O rings, and when purchased new from a vendor like ECS or Pelican, they come with the O rings.
