Default Waterneck

While replacing my water neck I ran into an issue. The main radiator hose is fine, but there is an additional hpsemount on the left. In the water neck I took off it was sealed up. Does this connect to the air con? Mine is missing and I would like thoughts on how to plug/runa hose with a plug?

Ahh. Thank you. I always called that the t-stat housing. Learn something new everyday.

That little hose is the bypass hose. It goes from the water pump to the t-stat housing. Also it IS neccessary. If not you will have coolant everywhere. Thats the spot where the chrome Ford Racing goosenecks leak.
