it IS the hose for the brake booster, the little line that runs to it is for the vacuum powered air controls inside the car

I agree, brake booster vacuum hose. Your car has to run like crap with that hose removed from the manifold. It goes into the rear side of the upper intake manifold, feel around with your finger and you can find where it popped out of.
