Yep, that's the one. It attaches to the drivers side of the engine right under the ear for the vacuum chamber just behind the alternator adjustment bracket. It runs under the entire mess on top of the engine to the turbos. The line that runs with it is from the oil filler tube to the primary turbo inlet. This allows oil gas and blowby to be burned off during boost conditions as the PCV valve is shut then.

The line from the filler tube is the one attached to the oil line.

Correct , rubber to the filler thing to the tube in question ,then the tube goes to in front of the turbos ,to connect to the pri turbo intake elbow with a rubber hose .that is a vacuum signal to pull air from the lower motor , oil pan .
