DPF Question

I was under my truck today looking at the DPF. At the very tail end there is something I didn't expect to see. There are two rubber hoses running from a sensor or whatever mounted on the frame and terminating in the DPF. Can anyone tell me what they are and what they do or don't do if someone removed them and taped them closed. Thanks

They are for the DPF pressure sensor. They won’t be used if you are deleting obviously.
