anyone ever heard this leak?.. VIDEO INSIDE!

big leak somewhere in my intake manifold throttle body area.. sounds like a whistle sound whenever i rev.. it causes my car to die and stall instantly

heres a video maybe someone has heard of it before

things ive done:
change the injector seals
replaced the shaft seals in the throttle body
re tightened all t-bolt clamps on all pipes
added new zip ties to all vaccum/boost lines
did a boost leak a couple of times and couldnt trace the leak
