That looks to me like someone put the filter directly onto the housing. On mine there's a fitting which I have a line coming off of and then that same filter(but w/ the rest of it) inside the cab to keep it out of water.

Re: Waht's this part called and where can i get it?
so there is supposed to be a hose coming from there? i was looking at a new 450c and this is what it looks like new..
it kinda looks like a cap is missing or something, but im not sure if something goes inside there...

A filter should go in there with a cover over it. My viair came with the tube that lets you move the filter housing to another location so water and junk stays out of it if its mounted to the frame.

do I have to run a filter in there, or can I just put a cover over it? and where could I get the part at?

You can buy the remote filter kits or replacements from Viair or one of there distributors local like Ekstensive. This is all the components a dual pack comes with new.

There is nothing wrong with mounting it inside, but according to RideTech it's not necessary. It does help if you remote mount it so it doesn't take so much abuse.
