I was converting to silicone hoses today, and accidentally broke the top nipple off of the purge valve (right beside the oil fill neck), but from what the factory service manual says, I don't need to care as much as I was making it seem like with all my swearing earlier. The FSM says it takes fuel tank and charcoal canister evaporations and puts them in the intake, so now I guess they are leaking into the atmosphere. No big deal for the health of the car right? I'm going to get a new one ASAP anyway, but just wanted to make sure it's still ok to drive my car. Thanks.

 

You should be okay for now, but you might want to plug it so that it doesn't suck any dirt.
