Thumbs up Vaccum Line/Sensor on Back Driver's Side Head

Ok -

So I just put the entire car back together after having the motor out. The sensor at the back of the passenger side head that has two vaccum ports on it - what is it, and where to those lines go? I know one of them goes to the T connection at the back of the intake manifold as a vaccum source. ...the other port has no line to attach to it that I can find.

I don't know if this is part of some system I no longer have on the car? I don't have EGR or AIR anymore. Can I just cap off the second vaccum port and go on down the road? Any help would be.... helpful.

Nevermind... AIR solenoid, and I haven't had AIR on the car since St. Swithen's day.

I'm gonna 86 the whole thing and plug the HVAC vaccum line directly to the manifold.

Thanks!
