Aside from a spot to stick the warning decal, what is the function of "U" shaped piece labeled item 38?

sorry, the link above is bad.
Specifically, I am wondering the function of item 38? Looks like a hollow tube with the end capped.

Its function is to make the car quieter. Some sort of tuned pipe to lessen intake noise...
