That thing is the AIR divert valve. It either sends air from the AIR pump to the exhaust manifolds, or out to the atmosphere. That open port thing is how it sends it to the atmosphere. It's perfectly normal, nothing connects there.

Edit, oh and if you are asking about the factory jack point, it's between the two molded in "arrows" there in your picture. Rear a bit from the "B" label.

That plastic thing under the air intake is to keep water out. I also thought it blocked fresh air to the intake. I kept it in place until I got the "claw" intake at which point I removed it. I've driven in quite heavy rains and not had a problem as of yet.

The Bose does not have a left/right adjustment. It's quite common for the stock stereo to experience all kinds of problems.
