need help please - plastic reservoir under engine air filter housing

2015 Forester 2.5 - there is some type of plastic reservoir (plastic similar in color to washer fluid reservoir) that is located directly under the engine air filter housing. Does anyone know what that is for?thanks for any comments

well thanks anyway guys. I'm still lost. yes it has electric assist steering. OK..., what is a snorkus box? Is it only available on the Oz models?

thnks all for replies

The intake silencer is white it his car, as it is in all the later Subarus.

No doubt... it's the intake silencer. Leave it alone.

ok - thanks. makes sense as far as location... I'm asking because I have a coolant leak somewhere that is minor but causing huge smell inside car...been checking any/all fluid reservoirs/hoses, etc..so bad.

ok what the heck is that supposed to do? if to silence air noise coming in the air box I'm asking how necessary could that be? just askin'.

Run you car without it and you'll find out ;-)

I see, so you don't know either...
