If it's sitting on top of the transfer case, it most likely goes to the vacuum switch on the tc. It's a round thing with 3 or 4 vac lines coming/going to it.

It's just a vent line. It should have a little elbow looking thing on the end of it. That elbow is a check valve. I spent days trying to figure out were it went. It sits right behind the dist almost looks like it should plug into the dist or to the intake. I finally realized it was a vent when one my buddies pointed out that the elbow was a check valve not a connection to something

I just looked and there is a green one to the switch, can't find the other end of it, but the FSM says there are 2 vents coming off of it, so ICEMAN is right about it being a vent.
