It plugs into the rubber hose which runs between the valve cover and the air cleaner cover - item 1 in the image below. Note that the image shows the rear of the interconnecting hose. If you check the other side you will find an inlet into which your mysterious hose fits into.

Item 1 in this image.

Thanks, so the fuel escape line runs into item # 2 in your pic?

No. Goes into item 1. This is an image of the rear side. On the front side you will find a small slot to plug your line into.

Yes, I found the hole and plugged the line into that. Thanks a lot.
