Turbo guys please help

What is this part. There is one vaccum line coming from my valve cover to this part, then going to the throttle body. What is this part and how should the vaccum lines be routed. Please help..

thats the sts pcv solenoid. it allows the intake to suck from the intake...thru that valve and to the valve covers when at idle or cruising. at wot it closes so you dont pressurize the valve covers
