Found this hose disconnected today

So I was looking at my truck today and noticed this hose was disconnected from the body lift. Heres a couple pics, it would be great if someone knew what it was. The truck runs fine no codes or anything.

Look on the side of the intake manifold I think there is a hose that is suppose to connect the two. I will check tomorrow though.

Oh never mind that hose above the top green line is the one going to the intake.

I was thinking today and I had a CEL pop up about a week ago that was for the EVAP or gas cap and I thought it was my gas cap, I bet it was this. I fixed it tonight so all should be well again.
