That is the AIR (air injection reaction) pump intake tube. It should be zip tied to the radiator shroud on the passenger side of the radiator. It should not be back where it can get caught in the fan.

As stated, it is the intake tube... It doesn't need to connect to anything but the AIR pump under the radiator. The other end is open to let air into the pump.
