Found it. It was under the other fuel rail cover. Looks like the old one was never thrown away and just took the leap out of the car when I opened the hood. Thanks to everyone for your help. Another mystery about my Vette solved! - Blaine

Awesome. Thanks to everyone that helped with this. I took off the fuel rail cover, and found this: The Vette Magazine folks took a picture of the same area, and it looked like this: I'm not having any cruise control or AC/heater control issues, so this version of the vacuum check valve...

Looks like you are right on the money! I've tracked the issue down to the weatherstripping. It's where the top inside weatherstripping of the door meets with the bottom weatherstripping of the A(?) pillar at the corner of the windshield. Every time I try to close the door, these two meet up, and...
