Was that screwed into the power steering pump? If so, that is the air valve for the power steering idle-up. I've not run one of those for 10+ years and don't really miss if, just screw it back into the pump (to seal it up) and block off the vacuum lines:

All that part does is bump up the idle speed when the p/s pump pressure goes high, like when you are cranking the steering wheel over at a stop. I find most of the time that is not needed and if it is, I can blip the gas pedal if the steering is too heavy.

It is a gas filter located on the side of the intake of a 22re. Dealership sells them for $32. I ended up sealing up the bad spots and re opening on of the spouts for the vacuum hose to slide on and it worked perfect. Fired up and purred like a kitten

It seems like a pressure switch of some sort, where was it attached to?
