If you don't(many do not) it is connected to the fitting that would have gone to the filter. Step 12 on this page( I know not helping): http://chevy.oldcarmanualproject.com/shop/1947truck/47ctsm0619.htm So, many thanks to tcleaderman for his picture. That little tiny line below the line to the oil distributer fitting.
