Vacuum hose routing with emissions canister...

This has always been this way since I bought the car...where does this vacuum hose go? What is this size of the vacuum hoses on the L03??? See attached picture...where does this hook up? (piece circled in RED).

NO WHERE!!!!

It looks like the "vent to atmosphere" hose off the charcoal canister. It's not supposed to hook up or connect to anything if that's what it it. One hose is supposed to be "open-ended". Is this the only one that goes "no where"?

If you look under the front driver side fender you will find a big round ball. That hose plugs into that ball. I have no idea what any of that stuff in that corner does but on og the hoses at that T goes to the cruise contol cable thingy.

the canaster doesn't vent to the atmoshpere. that is the idea behind it, it collects fuel fapors, and purges them back into the intake. the idea is NOT to vent the fumes.
