Edelbrock 1406 hose hookup

Pretty sure thats a blind hole or where the heat riser type choke heater goes.
I have two of those here on running cars and neither one has anything that goes there.

As a matter of fact neither of mine even has a tube that a hose could go on, so if you are using the electric choke function and have a tube there I would cap it.

There was nothing there and that is what the rebuilder told me to do.
Whoever sabotaged my car, took the vent from the fuel tanks and attached it to this nipple. The hose is suppose to be connected to the air filter

When I put my finger over it, the choke closed completely. when uncapped the choke was slightly open.
