Unknown loose hose, HELP!





where does this go?!

It is on the driver side under the ECU/Engine Computer, I took apart the grounds to clean them and ran into this loose hose.. I looked around but can’t find where it connects.

Pretty sure that's the transmission vent and that it should be disconnected.

But on the end of the line it’s stretched out like it went on something, it’s not straight but deformed on the tip

+1 vent pipe, is you ever have a mouse or critters in your engine bay thats where they hang out and leave a trail behind. They like to sit on a warm transmission. If you see leftovers you got rodent issues.
