Is this bad?!?!
I just noticed this on my truck the other day. I just bought my truck 2-3 months ago and never noticed this. Could this cause any problems/decreased perfomance.

It seems like it runs ok. I dont know if the previous owner did this for a reason. Or he was just a had an extra zip tie.

that hose should go on the intake plenum where there are 2 hoses and that one nipple. What it does I have no idea....where does that hose run to?

It looks like what you have circled is the egr valve but I bet it goes on that black piece just below it.
EDIT: I didn't look at your second circled pic but that's the one I'm talking about. However, after looking at my manual, it does show a vacuum line going into the top of the egr valve.

The bottom of the first diagram Nathan posted is very intersting. It looks to me like the EGR valve allows for the monitoring of the exhaust gas pressure. Does it look that way to anyone else? It passes through the exhause valve and into the headers and then branches off to a cooler then the the EGR valve which when open goes to the EGR vacume modulator and then what? At times those gases can go back into the throttle body? Or are they just routed to the EGR Vacume Mod for and end there? Nathan

From looking at the link above, it looks like it goes where you first thought it did. On the EGR valve.
