Where is this pipe supposed to go?

[Kash_]

I was just looking through my engine bay and noticed this pipe near the coil pack and oil filter. It has a rubber pipe going into the back of it which seems to run from the underside of the car going towards the back, but the front side in the picture has nothing attached to it. What is this pipe for? :confused:

it goes into the little catch tank thingy which bolts to the intake elbow

is it safe to leave this pipe open as it is? what does it do ?

Its probably worth checking to see if your charcoal canister is still there and also the little catchtank, if they are not then I doubt you need it
