Upper engine bay - thermostat housing. Is yours a 2g or 1g? Must be the 2g in the info below your sn. Mine is off a 1g. which is why it appears the t-stat housing hoses are a bit different.
I don't have one of the coolant tube behind the turbo by the downpipe on me

after looking it over i decided im just going to get rid of the line and block it at the t-stat and down at the nipple on the water pipe. I believe this line is for the oem oil cooler. But the previous owner installed a external oil cooler and blocked the lines at the OFH. So he was just being lazy and didnt want to block the lines off...

Been a long times since I've looked at dsm stuff lol. Looks like its for the oil cooler. Could get the parts for like $40 to fix it with oem stuff or could probably shop around and find it cheaper or could probably get that line for dirt cheap used and use the lines you have.
Sorry couldn't be of much more help
