Stupid opinion from stupid man, is it just a breather hose?

Is it a breather for whatever it's next to(air box?)

It kinda looks like it could clip into the plastic bit that it's resting on in the 2nd picture.

Looks like it goes into the airbox top cover which it is right next to in the photo?

Hey guys, thanks for the help. Yes it is the little vacuum hose off the airbox. Does this vacuum into the engine or cabin? Will be complaining to the dealership if it feeds the engine.

Not completely sure, but if it's plugged into the airbox then it could vent excess gas from inside the engine back into the intake?

I've had a couple pop off my last car (only from the top of the engine, not deep within), never found out why, just assumed that pressure build up caused it.

Would certainly mention it to Skoda though if your car is still under warranty.
