If its blocked and why should that be I have to wonder, stick a piece of wire down the tube. the tube exits at the rear of the wheel under the fender, it should be visible.
Avoid sticking a wire in there. If anything, use comperssed air from the bottom of the tube behind the rear wheel and blow the object up, because the place it would get clogged is about 2" down from the top of the tube. I replaced that hose on my car this year because it was broken and allowing water to go inside where it is not suppose to be. I have pics of that whole area from the inside somewhere on here. EDIT: Found them!!!
