Default Vacuum line?

Hey guys. When I was changing the clutch in my 94' I noticed this (what I think is a) vacuum line. Not quite sure where it's supposed to go or what it does. It looks like it goes back and then down behind the engine. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Where does the other side lead to? Do your vents all work on the proper settings?

There is an emissions vacuum diagram on the driver side of the firewall.

a screw inside a rotted rubber line usually means a vacuum line... you could always crank it up and pull the screw out to check for a suction...

follow it to where it goes..
