Due to some excessive oil leaking around the top of the oil fill pipe, I'm swapping the CDR valve and vented oil fill cap. (found both cheap, and need a quarantine project lol)
While poking around on my "ever increasing quest" to swap rotten rubber lines (34 years in the Texas heat seems to be their limit), I noticed the vacuum lines on my vacuum regulator valve are pretty badly rotten / cracked.
Is it worth swapping the vaccum regulator while i'm here? AC Delco parts are going pretty cheap on ebay atm:

I've had some weird shifting issues in the past (random hard shifts, delayed shifting)... so thinking this could be related?
Thinking of pulling the intake manifold and replacing the low-pressure fuel lines too (they're rock hard)
