The hose circled in red, where does this go?

I'm assuming it is a breather hose? It seems to go to the back of my engine somewhere but I can't tell exactly where unless I remove a few things from my engine...

Any idea where exactly? I am thinking of replacing this hose as it looks brittle (the pic is not my engine BTW I stole it from Dave A's garage ).

i think the middle of the block there is a 75mm metal pipe going up and then the rubber hose connects to that, easies to get from under neat

Okies.

One last question, does this breather hose tend to get clogged up with crap like the other ones from the rocker cover?
