Default Hose identification

While reaching up into the engine from under the car, on the right side near the back between the engine and the fender, this dropped down on me. Can anyone identify and tell me where it connects?

I think the front sunroof drain is much longer and ends behind the WW fluid tank under the fender liner. This came from the engine side.

I think too small inside and outside diameter to be a washer hose.

Original washer hose looks a lot different than that. Black cross pattern on it.

If its very flexible and thin-walled I place my bet on coolant reservoir overflow drain hose.

It is flexible but not thin walled.

Hi Rick,

It looks like a water drain hose of some kind.
If it is so, don't know wich one it is though!
I looked at the PET and it's about the size - 220 mm - of one of the vacuum hose but those are not clear lines like this one.
At least, not on my car.
