Throttle body question

[tekung89]

there is hose that runs on the intake manifold as circled in the picture, that connects somewhere back onto a pipe which i cannot find. does anyone know where it connects too?
does this hose by any chance connect to this black metal square thing circled in the second picture. it jus came to me because there is no extra hose to be found and this black square thing has an empty hole and is the only thing in reach of the hose coming from the throttle body

Yeh I'm pretty sure that hose connects to the black PCV canister at the back of the block

I believe that there is an extra piping attachment that goes through to the throttle arm ( think that's the air one but not too sure from pics). i believe that is part of the breather system.
Otherwise if its coolant coming out of it it goes to the throttle body under it.

Yeah its definitely part of the breather system, you can see the PCV valve in the first pic

Correct. Should remove that PCV valve since you're boosted now, relieve some crank pressure.

cheers for ur help. slowegg wat do u mean take the pvc out? as in leave it disconnected or take the black end plastic bit out. if i do take that black plastic bit at the end out, the full pipe wont fit back into the hole

The valve is the angled plastic fitting where the hose goes through the manifold.
