Help...where does this go?

I replaced the fuel injectors and put everything back together...or at least I thought I did. The car runs great and I have only driven about 10 miles total. When I popped the hood, I noticed that I forgot to connect one of the hoses. I think it is a vaccuum hose but I am not sure. What's worse is, I don't know what it is supposed to be connected to. Please Help, I don't want to drive the car cause I am afraid something will get messed up. I have another car so it isn't urgent...but you know the weather is getting nice.

Looks like the vacuum supply for the EGR. As you see it comes from the EGR control valve. One port of the EGR control valve goes to the EGR. On my car the other side goes to a port under the throttle body to get its vacuum.

Yeah. That end looks like the one that goes to a port on the bottom drivers side throttle body.

Re: Help...where does this go?

Now that I think about it, that makes sense. I just got my TB back after getting it bored to 52mm. With the excitement of putting everything together I forgot about this vacuum hose, and now after you guys commented I remember there is a spot on the bottom of the TB where this will fit. All the pictures I took show the hose feeding through the runners and under the plenum. But I don't have any pictures showing where it comes out, that is because it doesn't come out, it attaches to the underside of the TB. Thankk god this is an easy fix.
