Anything hissing underneath the hood.

Im thinking possible Vaccuum leak. When is the last time you replaced your PCV valve? Use carb cleaner and spray it over the engine bay. Listen for the idle change (it should speed up if im not mistaken). That should help you isolate where exactly your problem is.

Most of the time with vac leaks on these cars its not due to the hoses cracking (which I have done on my own, dont ask), but its due to the barbs that connect the hoses together cracking, producing a small leak. Even a leak that is incredibly small can still do this. I know. Its done it to mine before!
