    That connect to the fuel purge canister, the valve is just behind the drivers side cylinder head, and just a bit up.

    I would of thought that without the purge valve connected properly, your car would have smelt a bit like fuel, also when you open the fuel cap it would let out a fair bit of fuel vapor.
