Ford Taurus Vacuum leak Problem

Vehicle starts fine and I have replaced iac valve already but stalls and idles ruff after driving for 10 -15 minutes and does this every time. What would be the next thing to look for?

there is a pcv hose under the throttle body that commonly fails and causes a massive vacuum leak.
