I am installing my stock BOV and one of the hoses came out, so quick question to anyone who can help. The thin hose goes directly into the manifold? I see a hole where the hose can go from the stock BOV into the manifold... I did some research and saw that the hose went into a split, but I don't see that on my 05 wrx anywhere. SO right now I have the big hose connected , and the BOV mounted, but the little nipple with the hose is where I am lost. I don't know where the end should go...
thanks for any replies

If you are replacing an existing aftermarket bov with the oem stock bov, it should be just reinstalling the t-fitting that should be located to the right of the bov.

no actually. I screwed up. I have a t fitting on mine because I'm running a boost gauge so i need the t fitting to connect a vacuum line. Sorry for the bad info!
