There should be a place for it to clip onto the air filter mate.

As above, its the Breather Pipe for the engine. I had problems when fitting my Pipercross Viper induction kit. You need to disconnect it from the old airbox and fit to new induction kit. It usually has a small tube to connect on to at the side of the air filter.

No Worries!!! I had the same problem with my Induction kit and had to buy new hosing to connect the engine with the new filter! I got rid of the old breather pipe. Had no problems since!!!
