I'm definitely no mechanic, just trying to learn how things work so if they make sense to me I can then make a decision to try them or not.
Thanks for the help so far.
The hole is open to the engine compartment after removing the back side of the assembly, past the air filter. So you want to cover it so nothing gets sucked directly into the air stream and MAF w/o being filtered first. I have the same looking patch on mine.

If you look at the pic's I posted, the 2nd one shows the portion that was cut off, right behind the tube that comes out from the assembly past the main housing. Hope this helps.
