Sr blown intake manifold

Okay guys quick question what are the symptoms for a blown intake manifold gasket? while merging onto traffic and having to give it full throttel a cloud of black smoke flutter behind follwed by bad breaking up and idling leading to the car cutting off. Then while checking it, I found it blew the throttle body gasket loose and it twisted by hand. It wouldnt idle or make any boost then after sraying it with soapy water it kinda fixed itself which makes me believe its a manifold leak. Because it wont idle after giving it boost it dies and it wont move either like a boost leak. I just wanna know what it could be cuz i tried to help my boy out but I'm not sure if this is it or not and engine is fine no knocking smoke or blow threw and still has good compression.

I am pretty sure thats what the problem is but I wanted fellow zilvians input since everythign under the sun has happened to the cars on here, I just cant google the symptoms exactly.

Thanks guys.
