Installed the crank case breather pipe to air inlet pipe last night and noticed it has a t-piece with a thin pipe half way along its length. I'm assuming this just vents to atmosphere ? Is it needed?

A pic speaks a thousand words

Only place I can see this pipe goes is to the ICV where it goes into the inlet manifold.
