That ribbed hose feeds into the water tank on the
side, the forward side that also has the tank's
electrical connections.  You can see this by going
into the cabinet forward of the water tank cabinet and
pull out the divider.

You might be able to snake the smaller hose through
this ribbed one, but it likely won't be easy with all
the twists and turns--in only about 18" of length.
And I'm still trying to reinstall the ribbed hose onto
that tank inlet.  Made the mistake of removing it
during the interior removal and it does not want to go
back on.
