It has been too long since I have seen this equipment on my car so, I don't know how you would cap it. The black pipe goes to the back of both heads. Can't remember where else, maybe the egr? The grey pipe goes back to the h-pipe in the exhaust. I can't remember what it hooked to either. I think to that valve you are pointing at but, it has just been too long.

now if you decide to delete all that stuff, you will have to at worst cut the pipe off the h-pipe and crimp it. It is best to have it welded up but, you can get away with just crimping and rolling it I believe. The pipe going to the head, you will take off and buy some plugs for. You can just let the egr stay there unhooked but, you can also buy/build a block off plate. I have two of them that I built myself by just cutting some steel or aluminum.

the egr isn't connected to the smog lines and I won't to leave it on. The pipe going behind the heads is going to be a pain to get out so I just want to cap it. Anybody have a suggestion on how to do it?
