Let me pick your 3SGE brains!!!

Ok, I just found a hose thats attached to the throttle body in me MR2 and found it not attached at the other end.

As can be seen here. Now where is this sposed to go????

Also, while I was looking around, I found another one, it's a lil hard to make out, but here it is anyway.

Now this is at the bottom of the intake manifold, almost where it connects to the head. It was covered, but I'm wondering if it's sposed to go anywhere?

Photos were taken with my phone and a super bright white LED head lamp that my dad has, so they're a lil hard to make out.

Can anybody help me out here???

In the first picture are you meaning the hose with your finger on or the one under your finger with the black plastic around it?
I'd say the one on the throttle body would normally go to the charcoal cannister, if that's already connected then I'd say it'd be for another form of emmisions, if you have a pod filter and the stock airbox is gone that might have something to do with it.
As for the nipple on the intake manifold it's probably just redundant but on 3SGTE's one of them is used for the TVIS as your 3SGE uses a different form of TVIS make sure it's working properly by revving your engine past 5Krpm and the little arm on the vacum actuator thingee attached to the inlet plenum should open.

Sorry, meaning the one with the braided black plastic around it. I don't have a pod filter, just running the factory airbox. Got something other things to do before I start there :)
