Question Vacuum Connection?

There appears to be a tube for a vacuum connection that is part of the engine oil dipstick mounting. On my 2009 HHR 2.2 there is nothing connected to it. Is there something missing, or is it for something else?

It is on all of them from what I have seen and read. Mine has it as well. Purchased mine new in 08 and it has always been that way. Nothing to worry about.

I think they use the same bit for a Cadillac or something. It's just there to make new owners scratch their heads.
