So update, i was able to replace all the top ones, it was easy, i used a box cutter to cut the parts around the fitting and I recommend removing the vacuum canisters to make sure you don't break the nipples they are really fragile and easily able to break i know because i broke one of mine once.

I also noticed that maybe previous owner had already done a vacuum line replacement before can anyone confirm but does the OEM lines say AEM on them? they seemed to also be silicone and sturdy.

I couldn't get to the lines that connect to the wastegates but they didn't feel dry rotted to me or cracking. i could follow the front wastegate one all the way down w/ my hand but couldn't actually see it. I was afraid to pull on it and break something down there maybe this weekend i can take a look see if i can cut them with a better box cutter.
