Default pcv valve tube....where does it go???

i replaced my fuel rails witht he fast rails and after i got done i noticed the hose/tube that connects to the drivers side pcv valve (i believe thats what it is) was pulled tight and had ripped.

i looked at it and noticed the r-tard that put it on last just fastened the rubber hose around the pcv vavle stem, and didnt put the hard tube inside the rubber jacket on... so when i was putting the rails on it basically pull it tight to the point it tore off.

my question is, where does the hose go to? and where can i purchase a new hose for it? thanks in advance.

here are some pics to help. thanks in advance.

I'd suggest a dealer or find another material. I have an '01 with 81,000 miles on it and all the rubber on the pcv system is rotted and soft.
I know at parts america and autozone they have various rubber 90's, etc in the motormite help boxes.

i decided to completely redo this system. the ppl who put it together really rigged it... ill post pics after i pull it out. insane. im talking like using spark plug boots as a 90 degree elbow.... yea. i going to autozone tomorrow and getting 3/8 lines, a t connector and some hose clamps.

and ill be calling the previous engine installers on there amazing work. kinda makes me wonder what else they rigged up...

just do the ls6 pcv conversion, then you will have one short hose.
