Yes, put that back....and you have another hose missing off the re-circ valve (Light brown round thing. It has a nipple coming off it which has to have a hose attached)

Thanks guys!!!

I forgot to mention that its running non-sequential setup. Would that make any difference?

In that case you have got the poor mans setup for the non sequential!! just put a short length of pipe from the one thats on the ally section & block it up, as you will be loosing boost!!

(Forgive my lack of understanding of all things cars!) So you mean block off the vertical metal \'nipple\' thingy  or block off the black hose that looks like it connects to it?
