Default Name this solenoid, please!

I need a little help here. Putting my motor back together and had this laying in a part box. I know it goes to the drivers side of the engine bay and has a yellow connector (2002 z28). But i cannot remember what this is for or if it is even needed. Where do the two, I assume vacuum lines, go?

I'm looking for it right now (I work in a GM parts dept) and I don't see it anywhere. I had an 02 Z and currently have an 01 Z and never seen this before.

I know it bolts up near the coil packs. I want to say it is part of the AIR system?

Definitely not the AIR system. Mine is out of the car, and I can take a pic to show you. Almost looks like something rigged up to bypass the charcoal thing that sits next to the fuel connector without triggering a code.

yea, not AIR system. I just recently pulled the motor and was deleting and boxing stuff up as I went. I'm still searching. Is there a part # on it somewhere?

usually any yellow connector denotes airbags. But I can't locate that part.

A solenoid in the AIR system? Check out #5 on the word document and the item near that attached to the left side of the manifold in the attached picture.
