It is a high pressure oil line that connects the two heads so that the pressures and flow are equal, this gives it a smoother idle.
They come in hard and flexible lines. Here is what I have:

aaron and falcon, I'll sell it but want to fair about it. aaron sent a pm first but falcon, its your tread. I'll take half for it, and also my mistake above. Its a little different then the 99 HPX. Just go to that same web site and on the left click on our year of truck. Its bend a little different then the 99. Mine has the screw in ends, complete. I don't want to **** any body off so I just thought I would post this.

This hose is used to bridge the 2 high pressure oil rails in the heads that feed the injectors on the 7.3L Powerstroke.
The installation of this hose will typically smooth out rough idles as the ICP can now sense the pressure in both heads, quiet the engine, as well as provide improved oil flow to the injectors.This kit is intended for installation on a power stroke engine to ensure that the high-pressure oil rails receive the same amount of high-pressure oil from the high-pressure oil pump. The result of installing this kit includes, but is not limited to, a quieter running engine, smoother idle, and more responsive throttle. This kit is recommended to all power stroke owners from model year 1994 through and including the 2002 model year.
This kit will NOT eliminate what is commonly called “cackle” or “idle knock”. One side effect of this kit after installation is that the engine runs quieter. This allows you to hear other potential problems in your engine that were previously covered up by engine noise.
I have it from Dale and I like it.

Here is another explanation for you besides that that in the link posted by Neal.

Check it after you've installed it. I'd like to see what you think of it.
I would like to quiet mine down enough to go through a drive-through. The 17 degree quieted it down some, but there is room for improvement.
