Wheres this go?

Ok, putting my motor back together and I found a hose that Im not quite sure where it goes. It comes off of the rear housing of the motor itself. I am pretty sure it connects right next to the little plastic guy on the TB, but want to make sure. (I dont want to hurt my 7) Anyone know what I am talking about?

Always helps to label things. Such as it is... a little more detail would be helpful. Or perhaps a picuture. I have an idea what it might be.

I can never get pics to work..they say that I have already attatched them in the message when I havent...ltes see..Its a larger sized house that comes off of a nipple on the rear housing of the engine. Like I said, I think it goes up to the copper rail onto the nipple next to the white plastic piece, not sure what its called, on the TB. But to make sure, does anyone know? It looks like it was a coolant line because the nipple on the engine was corroded.

I just looked at both of mine and I think that your assumption is correct as to the placement of the hose. If the hose is rubber and has extra "padding" around the lower and upper part, that is where it goes.

Sounds like you mean the 3/8" diameter coolant hose running from the vertical nipple on the rear iron to the thermowax on the throttle body.
