Default PSD expansion tank vent routing

I am starting to re-install my rebuilt PSD controller unit. I removed it many months ago and am having to work out reconnection details.

I have a nice new expansion tank vent tube (928 315 097 01) with rubber hose connecting to metal tubing but I can’t work out where this should go in the rear quarter.

Is there a picture somewhere or a description. I could easily route it to end behind the plastic wheel arch cover, but I fear the end getting some dirt in it (especially in the wet and muddy UK), and there is no point having it if it just gets blocked. There must be somewhere where the Porsche engineers placed this to minimise such issues.

1) that is a lovely colour for a 928
2) can i check: on your photo, the tube runs first to the left, then goes behind the reservoir and then re-appears down the right hand side, running inside the fender. Is that right?

Yes, and it's tied to the fender metal brace.
This is a pic of the back of it. Thanks Arnoud!
