380se Euro Vacuum question

In this schematic you will see the line I have arrows on, my car does not have this line but the vac port on the upper left is open (circled) is this normal for a euro 380se? should there be a cap on this?

There is no where on the fuel distributor for it to go like it shows.

I did search and found a thread close to this by Teutone but for a 500 so no help.
And I looked through all the DIY and even the photo gallery
Any help with this would be great!
Thanks you guys have been a wealth of info!

Cool thanks, so just stick a cap on it?
Can't see leaving it open like that or is that better?

Have you done a 'euro vacuum' search?
If I remember correctly, a member (from Minnesota?) posted the Euro diagram.
Anything on the Russian site (exploded parts view)?
From many junkyard visits, where the US has two vac line connected sensors next to the intake manifold on the rear of the engine, the Euro only has one.
Good luck

Found that when I searched, it just don't show the part I circled.
Did look on the Russian site but no exploded parts view that I can find, but there's a good chance I don't know where to look LOL

Thank both of you for all your time and help with this

Have you looked at my thread below? My vacuum diagram seems almost the same as yours!

That circled vacuum connection should at all cases be connected, not left open, AFAIK.

Hi Flavio, If it isn't there yet, could you please post these in the DIY thread?
We lost many DIY threads, links etc. during the last benzworld migration.
Thanks
