going to fit an induction kit i got from my mate, my pipes to the air box arent that flexible so going to replace it so i can clamp it down tight on the induction kit

was wondering what the 2nd pipe is and is it essential (circled pipe) as i was going to get a bit of flexi pipe to replace the main one

sorry if this is a dumbass question but im a beginner!

Where does it go to? Pretty sure that it just goes to a warm part of the engine to help warm the engine up from cold. Not important. Not 100 % sure tho.
