what is this hose?????

I just bought an 00 F4 today. I took off the front cowl and side fairings. Gonna run her with no fairings until I find some crunchy ones to put back on her. While stripping her down I found a hose that I have no idea what it is. I had to disconnect it to get the front cowl off the bike. It looks like some kind of air hose to me. On the bike end do I leave it open and put some kind of filter on it or do I plug it off. Here is a pic of it.

It was spliced onto another hose, I am not sure where it goes. The other end goes into where the engine is, but I can't see what it connnects to. I found something about a pair mod but it was on an F4I not an F4. Does the F4 have a simular set up? I'll try and get a pic of the hose on the bike tomorrow.
