I have replaced an injector in my td4 2003 and put everything back together but I have a vacuum hose coming of the EGR valve that I am not sure where it goes. Any ideas ?

connect it to the egr vacuum solenoid .. that be under intake manifold ..
```````````````
some ppl disconnect that hose to disable the egr altogether ..
the engine be better off with an egr-delete fitted .. replacing the egr valve [ usually ok at mot ]
cause .. oil from the turbo mixes with hot exhaust gas .. creating baked-on gunk and causing air-intake restriction
the alternative be ..
every so often .. clean out the intake manifold .. and egr unit .. with oven cleaner ..

If your car had an EGR fitted at the factory, then as of a date (March?) this year it will fail the MOT without it.
This will of course depend on whether the tester knows it should have one or not. On Discoverys one or two of the letters in the VIN tells them if it left the factory with a cat and EGR or not.
I expect it's the same for all LR products.
If the engine cover is fitted then the tester won't be able to see it. If the cat has been removed it'll be obvious.
