did you try to locate it with the vacuum diagram ?
judging from the length it ooks like it's suppose to connect to the egr valve behind the intake but I'm not sure on this one. Is the solenoid that the vacuum is coming from is attach to a bracket with 2 solenoids right one beside the other ?

I checked the ZE vacuum diagram I am just not sure if this is the Solenoid, and this is the line that is supposed to go to the 'air cleaner'

Here is another pic

Purge control solenoid. One hose connects to the black cannister and the other to the bottom of the TB.

Thanks to BabyblueMX3. He helped me diagnose the problem over MSN. Thanks again.

The problem was EGR. I have since removed all EGR from my car.
