Yep. Been there, done that.
That hose snakes down the 'back' side of the engine, and is attached to the intake manifold runner via a rubber fitting. That fitting hides a compression fitting on that hose, and that's where they leak from. Inside the rubber hose is a metal line, actually.
You can either find a replacement from a junked SE-R (they are different from the hoses on 1.6 cars, btw), or buy a new one from the stealership. Last I *heard*, those hoses were getting $175 or so, new.
If you do a search, you'll find THIS thread: http://www.sr20deforum.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=26220
that should be of help.

Hey man I recently took the PS off of my car. I should still have that hose if you need it. PM me if you want it. I 'll give it to you cheap if I have it.
