I'm pretty sure that's the vacuum line for the VFAD, there's a nipple underneath the Upper Intake Manifold just behind the throttle body that it should connect to.

cap it and take it off. VFAD is useless on our cars least that what I read and most after market intakes remove the vfad anyways I just plugged with a rubber nipple.

Didn't see that you have the RB duct before, when you installed that you removed the VFAD(variable fresh air duct), you can remove that vacuum line and cap the nipple on the Upper Intake Manifold you no longer need it.
