RE: suction hose

I believe that is supposed to connect to your air intake tubing (the big black tube it's laying on in the 2nd pic).

Looks like it's been disconnected.

RE: suction hose

Yeah it looks like it's broke off the air inlet tube down by the air filter.

RE: suction hose

that's the breather lineand one reason your car was idling rough.

the engine sucks air in from that line and expells it through the PCV back into the intake
