Air Pump Question

When you take off the air pump, how many bolts do you remove? And do you have to plug up any holes, or take anything else off.

Becasue I noticed that there is a hose that goes off kinda behind the pump.

The hose supplies fresh air to the converters. They will burn up without the smog pump.

The hoses that go to the air cleaner, or the one that goes kinda on the housing?

I know the air pump is on every year, it serves a different purpose on the thermal reactor equipped cars, that's why I asked. -WG
