Default MAP pressure line hookup?

The MAP has a small plastic pressure line that is supposed to be hooked into the manifold, but I can't figure out where it plugs in. It is a fairly long line, so maybe it goes around to the front somewhere?

the small plastic line is for HVAC operation not for the MAP sensor, it plugs directly into the intake manifold fitting on the back..

Hmmm... so if I don't have any AC, I can just plug it?

the line would have connected to the small nipple on the back of the intake, just remove the line and cap the port with a vacuum cap...
