yeah that`s a fuel cell in the rex`s engine bay...
and the hose coming from the valve cover area is just for the gases (wastes).

I believe that hose should be leading to an oil catch can, considering the LS motor does not have a PCV system. Besides putting a breather filter on the stock Vtec head, some people tap another hole in the valve cover and have it lead off to a catch can so the motor can breathe better.
