Default Possible Vacuum Leak?

I have a 1995 that runs strong. I noticed the other day when the hood was open that after I turn the car off I heard a hissing sound for a few seconds coming from under the intake (of course....). I don’t recall ever hearing that before. The car doesn’t seem to do it if I start it only for a minute then turn it off. Running the ignition on with engine off vacuum pump test indicates no issues with at least that part of the vacuum system.

How’s the antifreeze fluid level in the overflow tank?

Good.i realize there are many vacuum lines under there and it could be any of them. I will try and localize using sound and get my bore scope in there to look around. If I have to remove that plenum again, I am locking the secondaries open getting the chip updated and pulling out that rats nest of plastic tubing and hoses. They really should have used hard lines for some of that.
