Thanks everyone, also found this, which helped. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/air-cleaner-to-exhaust-heat-riser-tube.1005815/ It seems to imply the hot air stuff is part of the smog stuff, if it does not get smog tested, can I just plug the hole the tube connects to on air cleaner I saw...

Pulled aircleaner to get at ps pump.. Silver tube of bottom broken, where does it go and can I replace it? . Also found loose part chasing lost extension, seems related... Update: silver tube is called "Hot air tube" on city racer, the sell stainless hose clamps to fit too.
