It's the vacuum hose for the cruise control actuator. Look for the round rubber thing with a rod connecting it to the throttle linkage: it should have an empty nipple. Connect the hose to this nipple and the cruise control should work again :-) Your car should have a sticker on the radiator shroud with the schematics of all vacuum hoses.
