a breather hose for a previous battery that used one. Not all batteries use these things.
It ventilates the vapors that build up from the process of the acid mixing with the plates within the battery.
I have a '98, and I have one of those attached to my battery. I also have one attached to my battery in my '85 300ZX.
From the pics, I can see how the top of the hose has a bend in it, like a hook. That's where it would attach to the battery.
If you look under the car, directly below the battery, you should also see a plastic hose holder to hold the bottom of the breather hose away from the fenderwall and point it at the ground.
Hope your worries have now faded!!!!!
