What does this hose do??
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/25071/digi_cam_pics_014.jpg"></center><p>I found it buried underneath the block stuck between the bottom of the manifold and front pipe...I have no idea how it got there.
I managed to attach one end to the inlet hose directly from the air cleaner...but where does the other end go?
Car is an '87 5kq non-turbo.

Re: most cars have those to cool the exhaust manifold.
i got one of those.....you'r right one end hooks up to the inlet and the other to the exhaust manifold...it feeds warm air to the intake, not cold air to the exhaust.....notice the little flapper doo-dad on the intake side? Pretty darn restrictive so I just got rid of it all and stuck on a big fat K & N I had lying around.

would it be a bad idea to make a custom cold air intake out of flexible rubber hose rather then PVC?
