Looked at it Hans. No issues. I'll recheck to make sure hose is good.

well, since you have eliminated the outside hose connections, it sure sounds like the hard plastic curly-q under plenum hose has popped off. It goes to the gas tank purge solenoid. The leak is big enough to idle at 1200 rpm as you described. My car came like that and was the reason for my first plenum pull.

That's my guess too after reading Marc's summary of known offenders! Will know this afternoon when I get under there with my borescope..

Found it.. unfortunately. Borescope clearly shows the hose on the curved pipe under the TPS going to the gas tank purge solenoid is off. Backfire must have blown it off. Will put hose clamps on these hoses when im in there this time.. happy I found it and glad it's not the TB. Well, needed to pull plenum and IH's to Port them anyway!

Glad you found it, Had to be something related to the backfire. Unlikely the throttle body would go that suddenly.
