Default question about a hose..

I have a 2003 TT180 and I have circled a hose that is connected to the air intake hose that goes to my old intake manifold. I have the Forge FMIC kit and there is nolonger a nipple on my new intake manifold. In the instruction picturesthe hose was not there. I asked Cincy about it awhile ago and he does not have the hose on his TT. When boost comes on I hear a whining noise that comes from that open ended hose. Now I am trying to figure out what to do about it. Just plug it up or anything else I am open to suggestions. Also I wanted to since it is not on Cincy's car why is it on mine?

and I've not mistaken thats not the house that goes into your intake manifold. Thats the hose immediately after the MAF and before the turbo.

Possibly a breather, or a sensor for Intake Air Temp?

Im pretty sure i said this before, but if not, just take a T fitting and tape into another Manifold vac source under the manifold and run it to that line pic just above. Problem solved
