Hello. Warm welcome to board :)

Yes, there should be a pipe to the air box.

If you a new to the car it is a wise move to get the parts list here on the board. There you get 50% of all go your answers in the first sight.

A very good point. I think most of us use the parts manual at least once a week - and our online copy is authorised by the factory.
