try reading the tutorial on removing your rat's nest. that may help you figure out what you're removing, chances are if you ditched your emmisions, then you don't have that pipe.

What you're removing from the manifold is the ACV. The tube used to supply air to the cat to keep it from burning up. Now that you don't have a cat, you can get rid of both, and the air pump. Take off the tube and ACV and put on that blockoff plate.

??? Then I don't know what that plate is for. The ACV is about the size of a tennis ball, maybe a bit smaller.
