My way of thinking, if one was driving the car and you went to WOT the vacuum gauge would show some psi if the exhaust was blocked. :dunno

No , always a vacuum on intake James, how could it go to pressure when valves are sucking in air and exhausting. Since exhaust is plugged it cannot continue to draw air in and gets less vacuum.

Think about this Don, Carb is full running ok At a wide open throttle it would accerate to full rpm for a while till carb would be eventually running low and then start to lose power and surge.He is not getting max rpm any time..... The crack in hose would act that way, but if we're that bad I would say it would be leaking externally then.
