Looks like it might possibly be a vent or drain for an oil bath air cleaner. I'm not to savvy on these straight sixes though so if someone else knows the answer, feel free to correct me.

THe hose attaches to your air cleaner.
It supplies fresh filtered air to your motor, which mixes with the crankcase fumes and is pulled out of the motor with your pcv.

Are you talking about the rubber seal or "Grommet"? I see a faint arrow pointing toward that area.

pcv valve and grommet should be at top back of valve cover. That's just the intake from the breather. Missing grommet and either a metal or plastic tube to slide hose on.

OK, so the valve cover grommet should be the right name, right ?
and what about a name for this plastic tube ?

Grommet PN #3868832 is easy to find&purchase.
Unfortunately Connector PN #3921983 is not available anywhere or i can't name it properly :-(
