Default 2007 4.8 intake manifold port question

Bought a 72 C10 with a 2007 4.8 van engine. The intake manifold has a port on the passenger side that is sucking dirty air, if I plug it the engine rpms come down, but it runs fine. Picture shown below, it's in the center of the pic. Can someone clue me in as to what it was used for? Thanks

That's called a vacuum leak. Plug the hole.

I realize that Andrew but was wondering what it was actually hooked up to when it was originally in the van.
