Default **HELP** Am I MISSING a hose on my engine/turbo system?

Hi guys,

Brand new member, brand new audi owner (super newbie). I'm very happy so far, and the A3 performs great. I have one question though - as I was 'showing off' my new ride to my buds, we noticed what appeared to be a receptacle for a hose that had apparently gotten loose/fallen off. No idea where the hose is, OR if some reason it's supposed to remain that way.

To give you an idea of where I am speaking of - if you have popped your hood, looking at the engine; its to the right of the engine, in front of the intake, on the very right of the piece that I think is a component of the Turbo (I'm used to NA cars, and this piece is new to me, so it is an assumption).

I've added a pic - maybe somebody can help? Thanks guys.

A little late but there's not supposed to be a hose there, that's the way it is by design. It's possible on some other applications (other car models/countries) there is a hose there, but on your car that is normal.
