Default Uncharted line coming from J Boot

I think this will be the last question. (And I've checked Clark's and LR diagrams for this already) There is a line coming off the J Boot that connects to the cluster of hard lines under the intake manifold that on the "terminating" end is broken (see photos in next post) This line doesn't show up on the LR diagrams for vacuum lines at all and I have no idea what to call it or where it supposed to go making searching a little difficult.

As you can see from the photo, where the line is supposed to connect to something it is broken and there is no remnants/pieces to indicate where/what it was originally connected to.

What is it for/where does it need to go?

that line is supposed to connect to the port on your cycling valve. Looks like you have the mount for it, but I don't see a valve. It operates the wastegate by cycling it's vacuum. In the Lindsey diagrams it is the 3prong valve running lines to the hot side ic pipe, the jboot, and the wastegate. You will need larger hose to replace it (Lindsey racing aos hose replacement kit).

its part of a different diagram because he has a dual port wastegate and MBC I told him to block it off as the cycling valve is no longer being used

Ah, I think lindsey has that diagram as well. Doesn't the hose manifold get removed when you do that vac kit?

It's blocked off now. I pulled the hose out of the J Boot, disconnected it from the hard line cluster and put in a 1/2" bolt secured with a hose clamp into the J boot port. I think that should plug things up pretty well.
