Senior Moment: Help identify this vacuum line

I was checking for oil leaks from the primary turbo return line and OMP lines and I stumbled across this vaccum fitting that's disconnected. My memory fails me, but the only thing I could think of was that this hard line goes up to the WGA or PGA solenoids and I disconnected it when I installed the boost controller. It's right by the inlet to the primary turbo. Looking at the vaccum hose diagram in the shop manual (page F-10) it's impossible to tell exactly where in the engine bay these things are relative to each other but I don't think I'm crazy. Or am I?

Thanks!

Thats a crazy angle photo, but you are right. That went to one of the boost control actuators down there. Originally if you followed that up it would go to one of the boost control solenoids.
