Identifying Engine "Thingy's" - Minor EFI Content

[Dupree, Robert A.]

That's two votes for the fuel canister purge thingy.  Think the engine will
start without it?  I won't be running a fuel canister, just a line direct
from the fuel filter to fuel inlet on the engine, and then the return line
goes direct back.

I think that is the fuel cannister purge thing.  I think the first line
going in is to pull vacuum and the second line I believe runs someplace 
(it runs with the fuel lines, so purge is my guess), I can look in my
GM helm to see what it says in a day or two.  The book is a ways away 
right now.  I will look tonight and see were the hoses out of that run,
but I am pretty sure it is the one that runs with the fuel lines.

There is a similar thing on the other side that I believe runs the EGR.
