Default UPDATE: What is this?

UPDATE: Just to let everyone know, I just got my car back from the dealer and the codes showing were P0171 and P0174. They said "found brake booster hose grommet cracked and leaking vacuum". They replaced the grommet and cleared the codes, all under warranty. GM Part # was 18022219. Looks like everything is good as new again!

Can anyone tell me what this is? I was putting on my new covers and i think it was loose so i pushed it back in and now the check engine light comes on. Car is a 2008 Coupe.

get a code reader out and read the code. from the looks of it the receiving end should be close by, look for it and plug it in. it isn't like you can plug it in the wrong connector, they are keyed.

Have NPP? I thought that was the vacuum line to the mufflers?

I just looked under the hood on my car and that is what it is.

I do have NPP so I am thinking this has nothing to do with my check engine light. Might be just a coincidence. I don't have a code reader so I am planning to take it to my local Chevy dealer Monday morning so they can check it out. I also need to get the popping/cracking top fixed too anyway. Thanks for your help!
