90 Bronco engine bay wigit ID help

Hey all

What is this? Is there supposed to be a hose or something on that fitting on the end?


I am putting this bronc back together after a PO removed a lot of stuff to "do a rebuild" that he never got to. I am using junkyard trucks and this forum to find what goes where but this one has me stumped, no Ford in any junkyard has anything on that wigit, so I am wondering if anything goes on there at all. I gotta transfer title of this bronc to California and that means making Mr. Smog Check Man happy with everything under the hood that touches the engine. I am going for a "never been molested" stock look.

Another view showing location of said wigit:


Thanks for any help you can offer!

Do be sure not to block that opening though as it is the intake air filter for the smog pump.

The big canister on the bottom is the intake filter for the air pump, the small one on top is the dump(outlet) from the first air diverter valve.
