Lousy pics, but can anyone ID this line? It is one in a group of 3 just in front of the right rear wheel well under the floor. The first pic shows where it is a bit crimped from some road debris, and the second pic shows where it goes into the right rear wheel well. Since the steel line is attached to a rubber hose via a worm clamp, I am assuming it is not a high pressure feed line, but maybe a return or vent of some sort. The damage does not seem to affect the running of the car. Thanks.

Brian,
It is the vent line that goes to the carbon canister in the passenger wheel well. In the rear of the car it "exits" in a downward bend open to the atmosphere. No pressure in it, only sucks air into the carbon canister. It is the same on my car, although the rubber hose part was located pretty much under the center of the car.

Cheers!
Carl

Thanks Carl. So, a restriction like I have is not a major concern. I will replace the line anyway next opportunity.
