thats one of the many noise cancelers for the radio, my truck has it in same place, if you are hearing that sounds to be like rpm like humming through the radio then u might need to find one. it goes to what my finger is on. the end you have thats loose goes into your wiring harness.

It is probably the wire that originally went to the Ignition Transformer Capacitor. Helps minimize radio interference caused by ignition coils. I think I can see the tab for the ITC bolted under one of the coil pack bolts. Can't tell if the ITC itself is still there though.

That's Fordspeak. I would just call it a radio noise capacitor or something like that.
