3" Tube in smuggler box

When I open my smuggler box, there's a 3" or so tube with a rubber cap.. What the heck is down in there? I can't tell when I uncap it. Car is a '70 911

Thanks!

Believe the tube is for the gas heater. Heater would hook up to this and blow the hot air into the passenger compartment.

How retro. It looks like there are wires in there though.

Yes, for the gas heater that would sit in the smugglers box. Would blow hot air back through the tunnel. That's why the cover above your shift coupler by the rear seats is slotted so the hot air could escape and heat the cabin.
