I believe it goes to the pass side valve cover. oops, no, it goes over to the vaper recovery on the driver side, under the plenum and then over.

Not used on an 86. I pulled the nipple and permanently sealed the entrance.

Interesting. On my 86, I have no nipple and the hole has been sealed about 1/2 inch in. Looks factory to me.
