Default The hose to nowhere

Hello all...just posted a thread about the location of the windshield wiper relay, and thought I'd poke around some more to see if I could find it.

I missed this earlier, but it jumped out at me this time around. The hose comes from somewhere at the center rear of the engine. It looks like it's been curved to connect to something directly in front of the driver in the engine compartment, but I can't find anything that looks like this should attach to it.

Any idea what it should be attached to?

Thanks!

Glad to hear it, as I was unable to locate anything that looked like it needed this hose attached to it :-)...thanks!
