Default I know this doesn't belong here but I really need to know

What is the other line that runs beside the fuel line. It comes from a nipple behind the throttle body to the evap solenoid then down to this line that runs pretty much paralell to the fuel feed line? What is this line?

simplified version: It pulls fuel vapors from the gas tank into the intake to be burned.

There is no fuel returned on that line. It is a vapor purge line.

That's what I'm trying to figure out, if it is a fuel return line. It's a vapor purge line huh. Not a return line?
