Bottom line: Hobbin and ford...both your 94s just need that "red" hose to be plugged. The aftermarket intake system only requires that the "blue" hose be connected to the nipple. Cutting and plugging that "red" hose is perfectly safe. So thus, the aftermarket intake system only has one nipple. Keep in mind the manufacturers (AEM, K&N, etc.) knew what they were doing when creating these intake systems.

Here''s my intake. It''s an eBay special, had to slightly modify for the sensor; but no MAF.

You can see my connections easily

It''s probably me, but I can''''t make heads or tails of your pictures.

If this is in fact the case, this step would be included in the installation instructions and the kit would include the plug.  All hoses should be accounted for in the installation of any intake.
