Its for the IACV; it's coolant.

Don't start the car without hooking that up. Coolant will spray EVERYWHERE.

Yep, that looks like its connected to the water tube. Your PCV is under number 3 and 4 runners of the intake manifold.

Driver, then the pass side one connects to the FITV under the throttle body (provided you have one) or into the intake manifold nipple.

i am looking at this and it looks like its showing that the driver side iacv tube goes to where that nipple is in the pic i just took today, so if thats the case it was right to begin with but then where would that other nipple go (first pic)

thats different than my d-series...a d16y7, i have the iacv on the throttle body, but what im confused with is it shows the nipple you first posted about below the tb on the top-left of this diagram, but it doesn't show what it connects to, so look up where you found this diagram for that answer....and also, you have coolant running into the throttle body from the iacv, there has to be a cooland return line....my guess, and like it is on my y7, is there is another nipple right next to the one on the underside of the throttle body, and that is what connects to the other nipple on the long coolant stem that is with the labeld diagram "radiator lower hose"

look on the bottom of your throttle body and see if there is another nipple that doesn't have anything on it

you mean the FITV? yea, there is a hose coming out the back of it, one is going to the IACV i believe, i will have to check in the morning. and the other end of the FITV goes to a nipple connection in the head
