Vacuum block looks good. Very clean. Home made, or part number?

It T's off the brake vacuum line, correct? And you feed FPR, boost gauge, meth controller, hobbs switch, what am I missing? Great location as well, nicely tucked out of the way.

It actually Ts twice. One to the brake booster and one to the evap solenoid then To the block. The BOV and wastegate are also plumbed into the block.
