Default Broken vacuum line?

Hi I have a 1998 v70 t5. I noticed this broken vacuum line while I was taking the air box off to replace my boost control valve. I have no idea where it's supposed to go or if I can even reattach it. Can anyone help me out?

Funny you should ask - mine is also broken and I noticed it when looking at the boost controller. I'll look for that also and let you know what I see.

I have a boost gauge, and from that I can see that the controller quit working. I took it out and looked at how it worked, and it seems to be okay. I have not finished figuring out what went wrong with it, but I do see you can still get new ones. I could just replace it with a mechanical one.

Thanks. You're right as rain. I need to go through the whole car and replace the little gummy connectors.
