Confused

I've been working on my setup for sometime now and I'm very close to finishing up all i need to do is connect a few hoses and double check everything...but i'm lost on a radiator hose thats goes somewere...here's a pic. I thought it went to the coolant pipe near the TB but it doesn't reach. and I've looked every place reachable and couldn't find nothing...This is one my many neewb questions but I need it answered to finish up can you guys help?

That is definitely a hose for the throttle body coolant line for the stock TB, but you don't have a stock TB as shown in that pic.

Thanks a bunch guys went to homes depot and picked up a fitting to connect the two. I should be starting it up tommrow after a "nut" check...one other thing though I have a catted why but I've read that you don't really need the rear o2's so I went looking around for a bolt to plug up the rear's but could find one..what would you guys recommend? or could you use the same o2 sensor...

leave the sensors in if you want. why you not going to run them? you tuning for it or deleting them? I dont know washington rules but in cali they wont pass smog without them (legally lol).

I was thinking about running the rear o2's and than have the tuner delete them out but leaving them there...but i just read that you could use18mm x 1.5 oil drain plugs to plug up the rear o2's. I might check up on the muffler shops if the drain plugs don't pan out thanks for the heads up...
