Default Breather?

I recently bought a 94 civic ex, while looking through the engine i noticed that a length of tubing comming out of the valve cover did not lead anywhere. Where is this supposed to lead and what is it's purpose? (is it the breather?)



And yes I realize there is a small opening in the intake, but if i were to connect the opening to there the tube makes a sharp bend and it restricts air flow. The intake is some eBay intake the previous owner installed.

it goes to ur stock intake and i think it cools off the oil in ur head. either plug the hole on ur intake and get a breather filter to put on the valve cover or run a silicone tube from the hole to the valve vocer.
