Default Vacuum Hose at back of Throttle Body

On a 1986 XJ6, where does the vacuum line lead to at the back of the throttle body. See the highlighted picture. My car currently has a 2" hose that leads to no where!




Thanks!!

VERY helpful thank you! My "T" is missing. I have the line going to the charcoal canister and I wasn't sure if it was an L or a T. I still need to track down that second line!! I seem to go dizzy trying to go from the vacuum diagrams, so this is helpful.

Let me know if anyone knows where that second branch leads.

Best,
Doug

Figured it out! There was a vacuum line tucked away. Bought a T and sorted it out. Thanks for putting me in the right direction. Even smoothed my idle a bit.
