Question hose check engine ?

I have a check engine light on, truck is running fine. Found a hose attached on the inside passenger wheel well hanging and can't seem to find where the bottom end goes.
I will take it to autozone for a code, but sure it will only be something generic like "vacuum leak". If someone has an idea what/where it goes, much appreciated...

Lots of hoses in the truck, so how about a pic or two?

code p0441, evap purge valve … I don't have my truck right now but from some videos I saw shows valve up top near distributor ? , cannister, under body, front of fuel tank.
so, that hose must come up from the passenger side ?

Did you ever figure this out? I have a similar situation on a 98 van. Big old hose just dangling about in the engine compartment. If your engine does have a purge valve and not a purge solenoid, it may indeed go to the distributor, but I understand that was only on older models, the newer ones use a purge solenoid instead of a valve and it's all electric, requiring no vacuum hookup.

On the 01 3.9 an many others ,that has both .as in pic.


It may go to this but we need the make/year, etc.
Look at the air hose diagram to your truck also.
