Default quick question about removing the AIR

I'm getting ready to remove mine, and was wondering if there is anything that needs to be plugged. I have one hose from the pump to a round valve or solenoid, then coming from that thing, theres a hose for the drivers side header and then one for the passenger side, for a total of 3 hoses. Thanks for the help

if i remember correctly (trying to picture it in my head) theres the one tube that goes into the solenoid circular thing. once you remove that you plug up that hole. if no one answers the question 100% i'll look at the pics i have when i get home and tell you exactly which hose needs to be plugged up. 98-99's dont have that ****

thanks alot for the help, thats why I am so confused, because all 3 tubes plug into this round thing, and after doing a search, and reading the "how to" guide I found in your sticky, no one ever mentioned this. Must have been all 98-99's

Finally, that's probably the best and only picture I have seen that shows what's behind and where to plug. Unfortunately I can't reach my hands back there to feel and even tell what to plug. I ended up plugging the valve of part #38 that connects to line #35.
