Are we discussing the heating duct?

The metal pipe should connect to the plastic pipes shown below. The fan on the alternator sucks cool air through the rubber boot. Blows it down the plastic pipes, then the metal ones attached to the heat exchangers. From there is fights its way to the cab vents via the heater pods & the fat ducting under the van.
How many other bits are you missing?

If it's the metal section that's missing replace it with some silicone ducting.

If it's the plastic bit you could probably bodge it with some ducting and some duct tape.
