Reinstalling engine, need a pic, pass side valve cover area

We went at it today, reinstalling the engine in the 97 camaro. Worked for about 10 hrs. Tomorrow, we have to bleed the brakes, reinstall rad, condensor, fluids etc.

One thing that has us a bit perplexed, is a module on the passenger side of the engine between the valve cover and intake.
There is a line that comes from the gas tank to the front of this, and what looks like two vacuum lines going out the rear.
We have nothing, so far, that looks like it connects up to these lines. OUr only theory so far, is that the rebuilder, took something off and didn't give it back to us, or we have a set of lines that we misplaced.

If someone could post or send us a pic of this side of the engine, the pics we took before removing the engine, aren't that clear.

Thanks for any help

Sounds like the vacuum detection switch for the EEC canister purge system. Connects in between the line from the canister and the purge solenoid. See this pic on Shoebox's web page.... always a good source for the kind of info you are looking for:

Yeah, that looks like it. We're going to check around the garage to see if it's boxed with some other parts. It's either that or the rebilder has it
Thanks for the help guys.

If we can hook everything up, we should be close to starting it up late tomorrow, I hope
