Name that part

So yet again in an attempt to get this engine running correctly I've stumbled across another fitting with nothing connected to it. I can't for the life of me figure out what it is.
There is a red arrow pointing to it. In retrospect I should've made the arrow bigger. If you click the thumb you should be able to see it.
Sorry for my extremely poor engine knowledge. Still trying to learn.

Re: Name that part

It appears to be this part on the smog pump. I'm not really sure what it is...but maybe someone can chime in...

That picture threw me for a loop, had to go look at it on my car. Thanks for the help.

Now I just need to find where it connects to.

Re: Name that part

So im getting a little smarter every day thanks to everyone on this forum.

I'm taking a guess and saying maybe thats the hose that runs to the cat? It would make sense since the previous owner attempted to put a new exhaust on without a cat.

In any case I think im just going to remove the smog pump all together and make some room to breathe.. and for some new headers.
