See my post above all yours. I confirmed that it was a secondary A.I.R. pump feed into the airbox and explained what and when the system operates. GM didn't leave it undone. the owner before you someway, somehow, removed it or when it was serviced, it was removed and not put back, that is all.
The pictures posted above are actually correct and are identical to what I have in GM Service Information.

That hose has been reported missing here in the Forum before, and in the photo, that nipple looks untouched by a hose. Seem in the earlier incident someone said it was discussed on a Caddy forum. We have had several members over the last 4 years that have had missing parts right from the lot with GXP'*, including me. So nothing surprises me. I didnt even know there was an air dam when the roof opened untill I seen one in a post here. Trunk access door another one I remeber reading. Cabin air filters on some GXP'* and not others. Quality control at the plant and at the dealership prep isnt what it should be. These are $40,000 cars and a sham for the sticker price. But thats all old history here now........

Yea, mine never came with one (a cabin air filter).
FWIW, I removed my stock air box (I put it back in during winter), in favor of my CAI I mocked up from a couple spare GTO CAI parts. Anyway, I don't even have this tube connected. No biggy. It'* not used after 240 seconds of initial operation (or once into closed loop operation... whichever comes first) anyway, so...

The cabin air filter became a dealer, not factory installed option after a certain year (although I don't remember specifically which one). I had to add it to my 2004 as well. I just don't understand their logic sometimes.

We had a poll here back in the day, andway less than half the GXPs came with the cabin air filter. It turned out, there is an RPO for it of all things. And naturally mine didnt have it.

I found the RPO code. K12 indicates you got the filter. $40,000 and its extra for a cabin filter. snicker..............
