Took my car to firestone and have this strange whistiling sound but no vaccum leak. When firestone inspected the vehicle they said the whistiling was coming from a missing screw in the throttle. Is this usual for this to happen? Where can I find this special screw? Can I pull it off a Protege5 or reg protege?

Yes, assuming you know what screw you ar looking for, but I have never heard of this problem before
 
Can you locate the hole and confirm it is sucking air? If so, try putting a piece of sticky tape over it until you can get another screw. If it was loose, engine vibration would have made it wind itself out.
