Question for the accident survivors out there

That is S/C accident survivors. My boost gauge has not worked right since my accident. It will read vac but not boost. Well, not all the time, it will work sporadically. There is definitely boost at the bung on the intake but it won't register on the gauge. Could my needle have been knocked off or the guage been messed up by the jolt? Has anyone else had this symptom? No other gauges are acting wierd only the boost gauge. Any advice is appreciated.
 
There is a vacuum hose that runs off the plenum, through the firewall, to the boost gauge. Perhaps it was damaged in the accident? They tend to deteriorate over time anyway.

kinda figured

That's what I was kindof thinking, that the tube was being pinched and possibly during accel the tube was being kinked or something. I'll check that and let yall know what I find. Thanks
