Default What is this part?

I think i checked it out before, and it has some kind of vacuum line going to it, but can't recall what it is if i ever did know? Can someone help me out w/this dumb question . I'm not talking about the coolant reservoir, it's the piece just below it (centered in the picture...). Small picture, but it loads quicker.
Or, if the picture doesn't work out... it is the piece on 93-97 (trans ams... i'd assume camaros too) that is at the very front, and on the underside of the frame rail, directly next to the coolant reservoir. You may have to remove some of the plastic shrouding to see it... but that's what i'm talking about.
