L3430 vent tube?

So I found this vent tube on the ground the other day near where I had been using the tractor. Not 100% it belongs to this tractor, but it doesn't appear to be cracked or brittle, making me wonder if it had fallen off while using the tractor in the area. I checked under the seat, as in removed the six-8 mounting bolts/nuts so I could get to the top of the rear end, and there doesn't seem to be a place for this vent. Anywhere else it could go, or does it even belong to this L3430 tractor?

Go to the back of your tractor by the 3 point arms, look up to the top of the housing under the rear of the seat. You'll see where the small diameter hole, small end fits into that hole. It's an inference fit. You're done!

Thanks, I looked in that area, and still can't find any sort of hole, even when i removed the seat. The attached image is what I see when looking in that area

The hose end should go over the orange nipple shown in your picture.
