Hi this might be common knowledge but I have what looks like a breather return the comes from just below the fuel lines into the engine bay. It runs down the front of the brake booster and finishes. On the rear of the RHbank of the motor there is a vacuum connection that has an open vent and a connection to the Throttle body. Should these two location be connected???

Sounds like the return line for the charcoal canister that should connect to the purge valve on the back of the drivers side head. So yes, most likely those 2 should be connected.

Hi Photo's below. I have checked pictures of engine bays and it dose appear that the bottom hose should go across to rear of the engine.

Yes, shove that pipe over into the open connection on the purge valve on the back of the head.
