I just finished replacing my intake manifold gaskets. While reinstalling the fuel line bracket, I found this hose toward the rear of the engine. I checked my disassembly notes and photos and I don't have any recollection of having disconnected it from anything.

What is this hose for?

Some more info:

  • It also doesn't have any more slack in the hose to pull any further forward.
  • It connects to something just forward of the fuel tank (2nd photo) (forgive my ignorance, but I don't know the name of what it connects to)
  • It has a hose clamp, but its about 12" from the end of the hose. (but that makes me think its supposed to connect to something)

After a bit of googling, I think its a vent hose off the transfer case. Would love a second opinion on this.
