Default Where does this hose connect?

Just changing motor mounts and noticed the hose with no home. I don’t see anything amiss so maybe it’s an overflow hose that should just point down? It is coming from the coolant expansion tank just above the driver side motor mount closest hose to the rear of the car. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Having difficulty loading pics. Thanks!

It is indeed the coolant expansion tank overflow hose. It just kind of hangs down below the body work open ended, and usually is pointed right at the #1 cylinder coil pack. Make sure you have the latest expansion tank cap ending in 04 and you should be good to go.

Make sure it's routed on the outside of the small aluminum shield that protects the plugs and coils.
