Coolant hose attachment

I have a 2003 gtx 4-tec supercharged. I noticed that a hose connected to the coolant tank came loose and I don’t know where to reconnect. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

That is the backflow from the engine coolant on mine (1503 rotax) the end where you need to connect it is located somewhere on top of the engine next to the water temperature sensor. I am no specialist but i have moved my coolant reservoir and changed that hose as well. The other one (transparent) needs to stay free ... it's the protection in case of over pressure so it's is not connected anywhere.

Looking at your picture it seems there is a CAP on the place where that hose should be connected. Maybe someone left it loose on purpose. Please see the picture below where that hose should be connected.

Could this be where it goes? It has a plug on the end

Thanks for your help. Would you know of any reason why it would be capped? I bought it used
