It's a vent for the gearbox. The originals had a hose running from the differential to a "T" on the gearbox, and then on up to the puke tank.

Opinions vary as to whether it's a good idea to connect all 3 together. I omitted the line from the differential to gearbox, but I did connect the gearbox to the puke tank.
