Default Is this hose supposed to contain coolant?

Hi, so I'm going to do a port cleaning of my tb and wondering if this hose is supposed to contain coolant....the section with the square around it. I removed that hose and coolant started shooting out of the hose so I quickly reattached it. Any help appreciated guys.

Good job. Typically, if you see a heavy duty clamp on a rubber hose its for coolant or some liquid that is pressurized.
