The hose should connect to a fitting on
the driver's side of your fuel tank. If you find
no fitting, you may have a replacement tank.

The 2 holes are for routing a fuel vapor vent hose
from the same area of the tank, but only on early Ghias.
It went directly to outside/atmosphere!
VW kept the same metal stamping there, even after
they no longer vented in that way. Hello EPA. Speak to the hand

Black box is your flasher relay unit.
