I have a metal tube that runs on each side of the engine. There are 3 inlets into the heads or below the heads. There is a hose that passes over the manifold and connects one line to the other, other hoses as well. What are these metal tubes; and what is this for?
This is the drivers side>>>>>>>>>>
And I have in the rear of the engine a vac line that runs over toward the drives side and down to the trans I believe. What are the two capped off lines for?

Where is the smog pump?? Below the tube are 3 inlets into the head, from the opening in the top the rubber hose crosses the motor into the tube on the other side.
Here is an image of the hoses 'T' where they are joined, then the hose run to the back, is that the "smog pump''?
Again another hose capped off at the thing (smog pump?) in the rear pointing to the left.
The metal tubes above exhaust manifolds are air manifolds. They are for smog. The long tube should go to the air pump. Behind the carb is an air valve.

Hey, my whole life is a fake!
Well, I was going to say to change the manifolds but, those appear to be plumbed into the heads. I think I'd look for a set of "non-smog"heads. I had a set of 65 289's I would have given you, but, I just got rid of them. I think I still have some 302's if you want them. Will have to look though and verify the year.
