I have that one hooked up so I must have the wrong number in the pic. It attaches to the bottom/front of the airbox by #25 though. My breather tube connects the center Valve cover to the TOP of the airbox. Number 12 in this pic:

Is it just a vent/drain that should simply hang down?

Thanks for the reply but I'm still confused. The one from the carb airbox (part #11) goes to #31 down to the breather box thing. Fine. This one in question (#8 in the pic) comes out of the bottom front of the actual air filter box (the hose connector near #25). It is about 14" long and has a snap ring on the end like it connected somewhere as opposed to just hung down. There are no more connections to that breather box..or is there another reservoir box you are referring to?

Any luck?
Here's a pic of mine if it helps to figure it out:

I guess I'm talking to myself here but for anyone else looking to solve a similar problem, I figure that hose should go to a 'T' between the carbs (which is missing on mine).

and you have the crank caso hooked up already. There should be one to the t on the carbs.
