Default Hose question

I have this cute little hose dangling off of the wastegate. I think i read somewhere that its some sort of release... but ETKA says its supposed to be a couple of ft long. Mines only 6 inches.

Is it supposed to go anywhere?

Default Its a diagnostic port. Most cars don't have the hose at all.

This port and hose is used for adjustable boost pressure system/valve.
