Default Fuel suction question

Hey guys,
Some jerk off stole my cat converter out from under my truck a few days ago and i have to get it going again to get it back down to Connecticut from Maine. So I was just going for weld in a piece of pipe to where the missing section was until i noticed a line that came off the top of the cat and up to a "skid" on top of the alternator. The engine wont start it turns over but doesnt sound like its getting any fuel. I am assuming that the line is a suction for the fuel and am wondering if i cut a hole in the top of the pipe that i am going to put in and weld that in as well if that will work. What do you think?

Sounds like the smog pump pipe. It's not the problem, it will run without it.
