Random Disconnected Hose in Engine Bay???

I stumbled across some random open hose under my hood. It was already dark outside and all I had was a flashlight but it appeared to be connected to the bottom of the air box in one end and just open on the other. I couldn't find any sign that it had just come loose from somewhere...

Anyone know if this is normal?



The red outlines the hose. The green marks where it is open. As you can see it's right next to the AT fluid level gauge.

Yeah, it's Normal. I was worried about the same thing when I 1st got my MAX. It's a breather hose if I'm not mistaken. Dont worry about it.
