I'm certain that it's for crankcase ventilation, my 84 County Isuzu has it, should have a length of rubber hose to vent outside LH front wheel well hope that's of some help cheers Dennis :)

Yep, crankcase ventilation. There is normally a thin rubber hose with wire spring clamp attached to the end. Hangs down past the s/motor.
