New Grill Question

Not sure if this is the right community to ask this but it seems reasonable. I was gifted a new grill to go with my new home and after assembling it, I felt unsure about this burner on the right side of the grill and how it's fed propane. The directions were somewhat unclear on this and I wanted to know if it looked normal. I'm hesitant to fire it up because the nozzle I assume the propane comes out of has a huge hole in the side of the pipe that goes to the burner. I'm worried gas will just leak out the side and cause problems. It's a cheap grill. Could anyone give any advice on this?
