Random hose - What is it???

I have a 1998 2.2 auto. I noticed this hose the other day. The Haynes manual implies this is where the PCV valve is, but based on other threads my truck has no PCV valve.

What is it?

and the spot on the intake is probably a hole, letting unfiltered air enter the engine. I would fix that soon.
