Hello,
While I was replacing my vacuum lines on my 85 I think i knocked the cap off this thing. Not sure what it is but I would like to know what it does. Any help is appreciated.

Looks like the BVSV (bi-metal vacuum switching valve) I think it's a part of the EGR vacuum system.

Here's the related diagram
