The vacuum hose that goes from my distributor (in my '74 2.0) to the throttle body, is missing. Is it required? What's the purpose of this hose? Must adjust the timing somehow? If I replace the hose, what impact will it have on how my engine is running?

No, that is lean hunt caused by a vacuum leaks in the hoses or worn out injector seals.
