Default Need help on AIR removal on an 01 pics inside?

So I have removed the AIR pump, and blocked off both manifolds. There is what looked like a vaccuum valve behind intake attached to the d/s head and I have removed it and piping also. What vacuum connections need to be blocked off now. As the engine is going in fresh and I dont remember where the hoses went to start with. Seem like when I searched all the writeups skipped this step. Do I just block off the port right on back of the intake? Im talking about the 90 degree barb fitting directly on the back and center of intake.

Thanks

Here is what Im trying to remove. I believe the whole saucer shaped thing and all the lines can be removed then cap off the intake. And ditch the little solenoid since we dont need any of it . So can I remove 1,2,3,4,5? Then cap 6. Where does 7 run to?? Brake booster?
