    The grommet is part of the opening, if you have the service manual look at chapter 4 page 33, 4-41 and 4-43 you will see the hose inserted into the opening. It is a short section of hose of the T from the vapor pump it should be 5/32" hose and will slip right into the hole, unless someone has changed the hose.

    Let me see what I can do

    This is the side view of the hoses.

    This is a 90/115 HP but it is the same deal as you 175.

    This is the front view showing the yellow circled hose that plugs into the upper right hole in the air box. It will fit snug unless someone has replaced that piece.

    Did you even look at my post and pictures?? It looks like someone has replaced your hose going into the air box. Your second picture is to small even if I save it to my desktop and then try to open it up it is distorted. The hose should be 5/32" same size as the recirc hoses.

    Don't believe I ever said anything about an adapter for the hose, I did say the hose may have been replaced at one time and that may be the reason it didn't fit. Glad you got it worked out.
