Exhaust Manifold Perhaps?

Exhaust Manifold Perhaps?
There's a loose manifold next to the engine. Not really sure what the manifold is to, so I figured I'd post pictures and see if anyone else knows what it's to, and it's importance. Should it be connected to something? If so, how should I go about doing so so it'll stay on where it's supposed to go.

thats the dreaded heat riser hose. there's a mechanical thermostat in the bottom of the air filter box, and if its very cold out, its supposed to suck air from that pipe thats been pre-warmed by the exhaust manifold. everyone I know has wired that thermostat permanently closed, and leaves the hose in your first picture connected only because its a smog check item. those thermostats have a tendancy to jam open, then the hot air cooks the MAF.
