QUESTION: Yes,it's a little black plastic part that sits on top of the intake manifold underneath the air filter assembly. It is actually called an Electro Hydraulic Actuator and is connected with the fuel management system.

Answer
Joseph,
If it is mounted by using bolts with a gasket, and is leaking at the gasket. You may be able to remove the unit and create a new gasket using a tube type gasket sealer. If it is heat distorted or cracked I expect that a used or new unit would be in order.
Good Luck
