As per title really, I've had this blanked off vac pipe near the throttle now for ages, I've had a good luck and cant see anything that's missing a pipe. I think it's something to do with a bleed valve that may have been fitted before I got the car and then removed.

As you can see in the pics it comes out of the bottom connection on the intake manifold but is just blanked off with what looks like a screw driver bit. I'm also going to have to replace the vac tree as that's got one point snapped off and siliconed and another blanked off with a short section of silicone hose.

if the recirc valve has been blanked do you have a dump valve? if so that should be plumbed in there

No Pete, no dump valve, think it had one at one time but it's obviously been removed.
