      It's where the bongwater goes when you're done.

      Or the throttle body heater hooks up...

          does this photo work?



          Is it the white doovy just near cylinder 6?

          this photo should help, gives a pictorial view of the water system, the white doovy in the above photo connects to the throttle body.

              No, to the throttle body.

                      That hose from cyl number 6 connects to the throttle body heater (which has debatable usefulness, but might as well leave it on).



                      The lower pipe on the throttle body is the one connected to cyl 6 on my car and the upper one goes to the thermostat housing.
