What is this and what should it be connected to?

I circled the thingy at the bottom (drivers side top of engine by firewall). What is it? There is a small hose that runs to the other side near the air intake, but the hose isn't connected to anything.

IIRC there should be a tee in the vent line going to the air filter housing that that hose connects to

Very funny:p You had me going, for like a second! I figured it was something like that-nitrous, a flux-capacitor, or a mouse treadmill.

So the small hose that comes off the power steering reservoir running over near the air intake, what does it connect to?
I believe all of those hoses are part of the fording system.
Is there a fording valve below the dash and behind the E brake lever?
If no valve is there a hole located there ?IMG_20240101_132616.jpg

no fording valve below the dash and behind e-brake lever. I find the power steering system in the technical manuals, showing hoses, but none show the small hose (1/8"ID) over towards the air intake/filter.

there should be a small hose that goes from the dash to the air filter area for the air filter restriction gauge in the dash.

Thanks, Coug. The hose I'm referring to originates/comes out of the top of the power steering reservoir.
