Help identifying hoses.

My car is stalling out at stoplights and idling very roughly. I was able to find a hose hanging down under the passenger-side front wheel, but I can't see where it comes from. Extensive Googling says this is a vacuum hose and I have a vacuum leak messing up my idle, but I can't see where this hose is supposed to go.

I found another identical hose not connected to anything up near the carb, but the two hoses don't seem to fit together.

1985 Camaro z28, swapped in V8 350 w/ cam, carbureted, automatic.

Here's a few pictures I took, really tough to get near where that hose comes from though.

Re: Help identifying hoses.

Who did the carb swap ?
Many redundant hoses after swap

If the hose does not directly connect to the intake or carb it is not your current problem
