Ford Fiesta 1.25 Zetec S 2001 - Breather(?) pipe - hikernick

On replacing the coil pack , which blew yesterday, I noticed a small (about 1/4" ID) rubber pipe under the front right corner of the airbox (by the coilpack). It connects to a little valve (looks similar to an FPR), and disappears vertically downwards down the front of the engine. The bottom end is dangling in fresh air. Just to the left of it is a small spigot sticking out of the engine, which looks as if the pipe should be plugged onto it. I was unable to see properly or get a hand down there as it's a very narrow gap, so before I waste time trying to get enough things moved out of the way to reinstall it, I thought I'd ask if anyone knew what it was and if it should indeed be connected to the spigot.

Thanks

Nick
