Yes they should all have a vacum hose and the hose will go to the inlet manifold.
MAP= Manifold absalute pressure.

I think most 3 bar map sensors are grey in colour too.

Make sure it is mounted correctly on the proper bracket so it looks upside down, ie the terminal plug goes upwards into it, and the pipe where the vaccy pipe goes points down.
