It’s definitely a grade A piece of shit connector.

I just had my engine out on a stand and can tell you that this thing connects to the vent side of the fuel tank. From what I can tell it uses intake air to create a vacuum to pull in vapor from the tank.

Not sure if it serves any other purpose.

Yeah it’s literally a plastic version of a proper AN fitting. Idk too many manufacturers that actually use aluminum AN connectors aside from like konesiegg etc
