The tee is some kind of vacuum breaker... someone will explain better, and
you can search the board for lots of discussion on the tee...

Nothing else hooks to it. Tank to "T", of the bottom of the "T" to under the bike next to the "Dragon drool" tube, side of "T" left open. It is, essentially, a vacuum break. While you're there make sure the port is clear (and the end of the vent tube under the bike is clear).

Well, actually the tank vent winds up near the kickstand (opposite side from the old drool tube)

The manual shows the stock location for the vent tube is on the left side by the side stand spring. There is a loop bracket provided to retain the tube.
