You do not need the catch can as it will not be used now.

The purge system (gas fumes) goes from the:
(1) fuel tank to the charcoal canister -->
(2) through the third fuel line to the little purge tank under the throttle body to -->
(3) purge solenoid valve to -->
(4) UIM

Removing the purge solenoid valve , makes the rest of the parts useless.
Remove all except the metal fule line as it can be used later on for fuel.
The hose from the tank to the canister can be tucked up into a body cavity where it will remain dry and out of the way.
