To be honest i have no idea what you are talking about. This site is not 'da hood' use proper English or get off this site. Also a picture of what you are trying to talk about may help.

It would have gone into the air box. Do you have an aftermarket airbox?
If it is the air hose, it just feeds clean air from the box to the air pump which injects air into the exhaust for emissions stuff. You don't NEED to do anything with it besides reconnecting it to the intake lid (for emissions compliance) or removing it along with the air pump (dead weight).
