While I was taking my intake manifold off today (a surprisingly easy job) I did not find the source of my surging idle, but I did find a 6mm socket with two 1/4" extensions on it that I think I lost sometime in 2019. So I got that goin' for me.
I get the dread in tiny jabs every time I open a door (from inside or out) or open a window or the sunroof, or lock the driver's door with the key because the DLA won't anymore.... and I hope you did not find those tools IN the manifold.
