Default Smog Pump Removal

I just recieved a dummy pully in the mail to remove my smog pump. Question is besides replacing the pump with pully removing the hoses, what else is involved. do you need to plug anything up. I cant see where the hose go to behind the engine. Any info on this would be great....car is a 92 GT 5.0......THanks

why did you buy an idler pulley when you could have just bought a smaller belt?
