Is the tube hanging down near the scavenge pump at cylinder 3. If so it is just the overflow tube from the fluid fill neck in the trunk water tank.

If the hose on top of the cooler is not connected it will blow water out of the motor faster than you could fill it.

You would be surprised how many of the oil cooler top vent lines we have found disconnected and plugged. Absolutely no idea why, the functioned perfectly when reconnected............
