Default Vette engine

Hi all, Looking at buying a 'vette, round a 2000 model,
when I look at the engine, on th drivers side rocker cover, some have 2 pipes emerging, and some only have one pipe emerging
these pipes are quite small and silver.

What are they, why do some engines have 1 and some have 2

Answers please
