Evap system components location V70-XC70

I am getting a P0442 code (EVAP systel leak (small), and want to chek the evap hoses. Where are they located on a 2001 V70?

There is a hose coming out of intake manifold (right in the middle top), going to the right to a T splitter, one hose going to the back of the car (via in-line valve) and one - to the radiator assemblym to something electrical (sensor?).

Is this the one? If yes, can someone tell me the hose size? I'll replace all I can reach.

This hose is in bad shape in most places, pretty hard, not supply at all. This is quite unusual for a Volvo, on my 850 the hoses were flexible after 13 years.

Thank you,
Yuri

    Is the V70 different than the 850?

    The line going towards the radiator on an 850 goes to the EVAP purge valve, mounted on the back of the radiator. Expensive part, about $170. A lot of people replace them, and the error remains. On the 850 the EVAP canister is in under the fender in front of the left wheelwell - the lines snake through to the engine compartment.

    I checked my purge valve using a Volvo test procedure. The valve checked out. My canister was not full of gas, and my lines seemed fine. I put it back together, and around this same time I replaced my fuel regulator. Whether it was related or not, my car never threw the EVAP code again...

    Here is a picture of what is claimed to be a common area an EVAP line breaks, back near the fuel filter on an 850 (scroll to the bottom of the page):
