Default Vacuum line help

Ok I guess I am a re-tard and can't read the vacuum diagram, and I finally have a picture. Any idea where this line goes. It comes off the vacuum line that goes into the intake manifold on the passenger side. This is on a 2001 and I know they changed up the lines that year.

I couldn't even figure it out with the repair manual. Sorry for being dumb

Also this is NOT the line that goes into the throttle body that line is connected.

Is that for the cruise control up under the air cleaner? My old truck did not have cruise and I have not looked at that yet on my new one.

here's some pics from my 01 that i took awhile back for someone. the only line that i see that wraps around the front is the cruise control - which runs over to the front left corner under the battery.

the only hose that goes to the air filter on my 01 is the vent from the passenger side valve cover, and its a bigger line.

my sisters 99 has that and my 2000 has it capped off. hers has the overhead console and it is a 360, but other than that they are the same. well almost, hers has bands that hold the u joint to the rear axle and mine has the plate deal like the front drive shaft to transfer case hookup.

From what I can tell, That looks like my cruise control hose on my '01. Look underneath the battery at the cruise control module. Follow that vacuum hose out, and see if it goes anywhere. Mine runs over to that T, that you have pics of coming outta the manifold.
