Help Identify Leaking/cracked hoses

[cncmastr]

Hi guys/gals.

I was researching some threads about replacing old cracked and leaking vacuum hoses and I figured, that I should inspect mine before I ID what needs to be replaced. I took the liberty of uploading them below for you all to see.
Any idea why one of them would have oil on it?


Can anyone ID what this hose is for? It has some cracks in it and I want to replace it.


I have more pictures in my photo set of other parts of the car if you are interested in viewing. There is even a whole section of recently replaced suspension parts. Here.

I suggest tackling what has been officially known as "the mess under the intake".

That's the best thing I ever did to my 318is.

yep, you really need to get rid of the mess,
in 2nd photo if your refereing to the two lower hoses, those are fuel in, and fuel out lines to injector rail
the on wit oil is prob your breather
