Looks like the PCV system. It vents excess crankcase pressure through the valve covers.

Drivers side head, and that hose tells me it's the air system. Does the large hose go around the master, down the LF fender to the air cleaner?

no the air is gone i guess it is the pcv system. i didn't expect the valve to be in the head/valve cover though. all the air and egr was removed when i installed headers.
