Whirring sound from hole in fuel door - missing plug?

Got my 2000s back from the shop to fix an oil leak and noticed a loud whirring noise from the right side. It happens during idle and sometimes during acceleration. 

Opened up the fuel door and noticed it was coming from the hole in the right side. 

I put my finger on it to plug it and the sound went away. 

Should there be something here? If so, what part do I need? 

Thanks!

The sound you hear may  not be coming from that drain vent, but from what is behind it, your EVAP system.  Do a search, multiple vacuum lines and valves that can all make sounds.
