I think you are describing the HBV (heater bypass valve) and the vacume pipe that should connect to it by way of a small pipe coming out of it's top. ;)

If you are confused, look at the second picture in of this thread:

The red arrow is pointing to the vacume outlet/inlet  I mention ;) ;)

no not that one, the one that fits on to the the pipe coming out of the brake servo, to the right of the multi joint on the sme pipe,then comes all the way round back of engine down the side by the oil filler and to the front of the engine to a plastic drum part with two pipes coming out,it has actually been snapped of and the pipe taped up the pipe coming of the brake servo :y :y
