Need help with this hose.

I was doing some work near the right side of the supercharger and accidentily unhooked this hose/tube. I have looked around and cant find when it connects. Anyone can give any feedback about where it connects?

Follow the hose coming from the purge valve to where it goes under the intercooler. There’s an elbow fitting it connects to. You’re going to have to remove the intercooler to get to it.

It will trip a fault code on the OBDII = P1477 "Read switch does not open". My novice translation; There is a pressure/ venting leak in the fuel system.
Someone more knowledgeable or eloquent can articulate better.
