Default Missing Hose?

Does anyone know what hose is missing from here? Its a 996TT with a evoms air box (not sure if its supposed to be missing as part of the stock air-box removal).

The car runs fine and isn't throwing any codes.

good idea to try asking the Turbo guys in the TURBO forum also: https://rennlist.com/forums/996-turbo-forum-61/

I sense some animosity, I didn't figure the hose was unique to the turbo so I posted here.

No, he was trying to help you in case you didn't know there's a separate forum for 996 turbos. A few folks before really didn't know. The 996 turbo uses a totally different engine than an N/A 996.

996 has a similar hose there and it's a fuel supply hose. You can't be missing that

I can't help with the missing hose, but you really need to get an updated coolant cap.

There have been 3 separate super-ceded parts since the one you have. The newest ones end in .04

~$25-30 bucks depending on where you get it, but please do it.

Slakker, I don't think your opinions in a thread about missing hoses is entirely trustworthy...

That postcard should absolutely be posted in every technical thread. It's very useful.

Maybe post it twice just to be certain everyone realizes how clever it is. I'd hate for it to be overlooked.
