I have just been connecting up all my water pipes etc and i have one left over and cant find a home for it! 
The pipe comes off the bottom of the inlet manifold! If somebody would be kind enough to have a quick look at where theirs go i would be very grateful!

It's not a water pipe. It's the pipe for the ICV isn't it?

Your ICV is wherever you left it when you took it off
It's a small silver cylinder which has a plug on it - the wiring comes from the wiring loom. It has another pipe which goes to the top of the engine and connects to the SFi box/Ecotec pipe/power cap in front of the throttle body.
All the water goes in and out of the manifold through the head so you don't need to worry about that one
Been looking for pictures, sadly can't find anything at the moment...

This is my bottle,
1. I have this pipe (pipe not not shown) going to behind the engine
2. I have this pipe going to underneath the centre of the inlet manifold
3. I have this pipe going to the top of my radiator
1. This is the pipe i cant find a home for, its coming off the side of the inlet maifold
1. This is the end of the pipe which comes off the side of the inlet manifold, its really long and i cant seem to find any where for it to go
Hope this helps explain what im talking about
