You're right, Ingo, and a bit wrong too.

In fact, ETKA show a length of tubing (620 mm long, 5.5 x 3 mm cloth braided
tubing) to be attached to that nipple, just to be sure that no dust can be
suck in the WG when it moves. But the other end is loose in the engine bay.
Classic German over-engineering. However, some say that this loose end could
be problematic in an emission test, if the tech is picky. That remains to be
proved.
