lol...

That is your emmisions canister. (I think theres charcoal in there)
It holds gas vapors and then burns them when the car is running. Most people yank that out when they remove the smog stuff.

I think that one routes to the bottom of the intake manifold from the front side
I tried posting an image but I think there is a problem with imageshack...

But it routes by the number 1 spark plug wire on the distributor and under the intake.
