Pull the vacuum hose to the brake vacuum booster and put a bolt in it does this make the engine run better. If it does get a rebuilt or scrapyard replacement booster. Spray along side the intake manifold with carb. cleaner if it immediately smooths out replace the intake gasket.

My 95 F-150 5.8L was doing the same thing minus the idling problem. Mine was the little vac check vlave. Yours definately sounds like a good size vac leak. Do what RH said and make sure to double check those plastic vac lines. I found one of mine up at the recirc valve (the white one) was dry rotted and rubbed through from the hood.

Yeah, a brake booster can lose a lot of vacuum though. That's a large vac line. Inspect that check valve there at the booster while you're there.

Good Luck
