I finished a HG change and am done and have an extra hose coming up next to the water bypass outlet behind the intake. It branches off the same pipe as the hose next to it (see photo at link below). There is also an outlet on the top of the throttle body which I am not sure if a hose is supposed to connect to it. but the hose in question does not reach the throttle body. Should have took an extra photo before dismantling. Any help would be appreciated as I am ready to fire it up!

I think it goes to the bottom of the throttlebody?

Yes!! Thanks Rattlewagon. How about that open port on the top of the throttlebody? OK as is?

The coolant hose goes to the bottom/right of the throttle at the idle air control valve. You'll see the barb down below the throttle sensor.

The port on top of the throttle looks like it has a cap on it. Are you sure that it's open? If it's capped off, leave it. It doesn't do anything. Not really sure why it's there, but mine's the same way. I figured it was for an option my vehicle....and apparently yours.... didn't have. If it's open, though, cap it. There's cheap vacuum cap kits at most auto part stores.

Looks like a factory cap on that port so most likely nothing is attached to it.

Yes it that is a cap not a port now that I look closer, thanks guys!!
