Missing a hose. Please help

I am not an RX7 engine expert, but know enough to do basic maintenance. My alt belt blew a week ago and I finally got around to putting a new one on. When I went to put everything back together, I noticed I was missing a hose - the one coming out of the right side of the air box (see photo). I know it was there when I disassembled it because I noticed that the other end wasnt connected to anything.

1) What is this hose?
2) Is the other end supposed to be connected to something?
3) Where can I buy another one?

I guess I am also concerned that I can't find it. I have no idea where it could have went. I am hoping it isnt somewhere buried in the engine. I am almost positive it isnt because I looked everywhere in there, but none the less, it still concerns me

Please do not put 'help' in post titles. As per the FAQ, if you need help, call 911.

This is the stock anti-moo sound diverter hose. Its other end is not attached to anything.

You can order a new one from Ray.

I really wouldn't worry much about it if it isn't there. If it WAS there and is now somewhere in the depths of your engine bay it would be a good idea to find it, that's a big damn part to have floating around. Especially if it's sitting on your radiator fans, that could get bad in about 10 ways.

If you do really want one, I'm sure you can get one used for free or cheap.
