So after looking it over I am pretty sure the horizontal tube is the oxygen intake for whatever is under the battery, and yeah the once clear one is no longer relevant like you said, glad to know that im not crazy. How ever, i thought I would start out by simply changing the oil, GOOD GRIEF could NOT get the bolt underneath on the oil pan to give way! I read on her to use the box end on the wrench so as not to strip it but was afraid I was starting to strip it anyway. Gonna run to walmart and get a ratchet set. Also I guy walked by, was working on it in the parking lot, and he told me I was crazy to use synthetic, I live in Vegas and it is already hitting 105f in the afternoon so was gonna use SAE 30 like the manual says, but does the synthetic matter, figured if anything it would be better...
