Where does the end of this pipe go?

Hi all,

Where does the end of this air intake go?

It the hose from the air filter down to side of radiator near oil coolant lines.

if you haven't started the engine, put a vacum cleaner pipe down there, suck it out.

but first fit a new bag, so you are sure you got it out.

otherwise to remove pipe, go into passenger whee arch
remove 8mm bolt securing it, and jublie clip and fight it out.

I make it sound easy

You could also try compressed air from the bottom intercooler, but a vacuum hose should get it.
