Identify Part

[coopns]

Changing the oil and checking over the few things I can do...(not much).

Took off the air filter housing and saw this 'T" and looked like a hose was missing. Of course I hit the "T" and fortunately found it.
I don't know the orientation of the part, I just plugged it in.

2004 Camry

take a good look above your head, there's usually a vacuum route schematic diagram glued under the hood sheet metal.
learning all the meaning(s) of the abbreviated call outs is another matter entirely.. . . . . . but you will find the hose routing there.

Looks like there is a hose missing right by your upper finger in that pic.

I think this is what Wymi is referring to:

The little hose fell down against the valve cover left of shot

Fish it out

'04-'06 Camry V6?

Looks a spitting image of mine

That's the vacuum feed for the adaptive front engine mount and the Intake tuning valve

They often fall off if the front or torque strut mount is bad jerking the engine back and forth on take off

Or.

They tend to dry rot and fall off the fittings with age, I've been meaning to track down the correct size bulk to replace

Put the hose back as you see with the red line in the picture

If you can't figure it out, I'll go take a picture of mine
