I assume it's on the underside.
that's probably a vent meant to be attached to a carbon canister.
If you have a vented gas cap, there's no need for it.

Alright, just told also it could be the evaporative emission system vent line, which means this could be a Californian tank. So would it be alright to blank it off? never had one on my other European model.
