It WILL be in contact with gasoline, hopefully not much but gas will get in there.

Why would it be in contact with the fuel?
Your ITBs go directly into the heads, do they not? Injectors are pointed down the intake, correct? They might get a hint of vapor, but if it's truly under vacuum it would be cleared out on the next available intake cycle.. and you have 2x as many of those as most of us do!
I would worry about fire and explosions if your getting puddles of fuel in a vacuum chamber. There shouldn't be any thing but... well, vacuum in that chamber!
Maybe I'm missing something in it's design, but it seems odd to have unburned fuel around in the manifold. And I have to +1 for the PermaTex... AWESOME stuff!!

FYI - Gasgacinch is only gasoline resistant too.
