Default Blackwing install question

Just received Blackwing air cleaner. :thumbs: I have a question though. What goes into the hole next to the built in gauge that tells you when the filter needs cleaning? I have a 2000 Vette. Also, does the filter mount with the gauge on the driver side or passenger side? I also think I am going to install the filter at the same time I change my battery. This way the computer will wake back up and be able to set itself according to the new air flow . Sound like a good idea? :confused:

Your air pump(egr stuff) goes in the hole.Should be a rubber hose and a groumet. If not then get a little filter from autozone. I know my 99 has it but I disconnected it when I put my headers on.

Is that the S shaped hose that is already going into the stock air filter on the driver side?
