Not 100% sure but off the top of my head think it goes to the fuel pressure regulator.

Found where it went chaps. Thanks for your help. I think its something to do with the fuel, but it was a small box located behind the steering pump, under the inlet manifold. I had to remove the steering pump and fans so I could get my shovel hands in there! BUT the difference it makes Smoooothest she's ever been!
