1- I believe is the charcol cannister.
3- They all came in black stock. Its just paint. Remove the trim and use paint stripper. Buy new plastic clips from victoria british to put it back on.
4- Is where the pre heat hose to the air cleaner goes

the canister is part of the fuel venting system. It keeps the car from smelling like gas all the time.
