Something fishy about my turbo. . .

Hello all-
While poking around under my hood recently, I noticed something a little odd about my turbo, that I've never noticed before (never really took a close look at it before, really.)
Anyways, here's what I noticed: There appear to be two pipe fittings, about 1/2" dia., on the turbo that have nothing attached to them. They are both on the middle part of the turbo, between the compressor and the turbine. One is pointing up and back, at about 45 deg, and the other is opposite the first.
What are these fittings for? Should I be worried that nothing is attached to them? The car runs fine, aside fromthe occasional problem, but these fittings really caught my attention. Just wondering what anyone thought.
