2001 Ford V-10 Heater Hose Vent

Question

I have a 2001 Allegro with a V-10. At the front of the engine at the 3/4 inch heater hose connection there is a fitting that looks like some kind of vent.  It is covered by a rubber fitting and a clamp and is located just below the place where the 3/4 inch hose connects. Could anyone tell me the purpose of this vent/fitting and how it is used?

Are you sure its not the heater water flow control valve, usually run with vacuum?
