Default 97 f150 EGT port clog pic

Thanks to helpful site like this one I had a good idea my EGR ports were clogged in my throttle body spacer when I got the all-too-common P401 insufficient flow code. Sure enough they were.
I thought people might enjoy seeing some very clogged ports

One thing I need help with. I split the big hose in the throttle body spacer rear. The one next to the brake booster hose... Where the heck does that thing go? It goes toward the passenger side but I couldn't see where to? Any help?
It goes here where the arrow points if that helps

In the future always take a lot of pics of the area you are going to disassemble. It's true, pics are worth a 1000 words
