What do I do with this hose?

I found this hose in my engine compartment after I removed my a/c. I traced it back to the activated carbon container and believe that it would normally be connected to the airbox. I have a K&N cone filter, so what should I do with this hose?

Is that the "oil breather hose" coming off of your oil tank and then going into that active carbon filter?
Where does that white hose go to after coming of that filter too?

I Have a K&N filter also, I made a "kind of" maniflod using a 1" rubber hose to connect the oil breather, charcoil canister hose, cold start valve vacum hose and turbo oil cooler reservoir breather hose. Then, drilled a 1" hole on the air filter holder, installed a rubber bonnet and inserted the " 1" rubber hose manifold" through it. 30K miles ago and works like a charm.
However, you can just leave it alone hanging in there...
What did you do with the oil breather and cold start vacum hoses?

The PO installed the K&N. I'll check where the other hoses go and post again.

Here's a couple more pics. The breather hose terminates behind the throttle body (pic 1). I followed the white braided hose to the rear left of the engine compartment but could not find exactly where it ended - I didn't want to mess too much with the lines back there.

Any thoughts?
