95 LT1 intake question

I'm doing an engine swap, 95 LT1 into an 83 Camaro, and I can't account for one threaded hole in the front of the intake pictured below:



I'm pointing at it with a small extension.



Is it for a sensor, if so, which one? Thanks guys.

Massive vacuum leak if you don't at least plug it.

Thanks guys for the info. I found the pipe and hoses and it is for the PCV system. Now all I need is the nipple that goes into the intake.

Re: 95 LT1 intake question

The nipples that are used in the intake manifold are they pipe threads?
