I bet the codes a lean bank code and you have a vac leak. or maybe a multiple misfire code and maybe you need some new wires

Ok, so I scanned the car from NAPA. Said the 6th cylinder was misfiring. I checked the plug and the plug was very loose, I uncrewed it by hand. Before I could see the plug of course I had to drop it down the engine bay. But I bought another one and replaced, took it for a spin and it fixed the problem but with still very little vibration at lower rpms. Now just drove 200 miles and pretty much have the same problem now again, I will check the plug again tomorrow but I think I might have to change the wire aswell. And these garbage Alaskan roads arent helping at all. And a few mentioned a Vac leak. What do you guys mean by that? Thanks once again.
Update: I checked out all of my plugs, they look fine but a little dirty for how new they are I think. Time to do some research on a Vac leak. Hopefully it isnt anything major!
The wires are about 8-10 Months old and the spark plugs are 3 weeks old.

Ok I checked out the Vacuum line to the throttle body, It looked just fine but I wanted to check it out, Thinking it was rubber I was twisting it and pulling it slowly and it broke like a cracker. Having some trouble finding black tape but I checked out the hose and it looks fine. I want to clean out the MAF but it is barely over a year old I think it should be fine.
