Looks like a carbon cannister? Never seen a Nova one lol
If it is it's just some ghey thing the tank breathes into in an event to control the fuel vapours.

i had one ripped it ot and cut pipes back
lol seems not to start now must me somethink eles no fuel going in?
Block off all the pipes apart from the one comming from the fuel tank.
Can block the pipes or let them vent it's not big deal. That POS was full of charcoal lol think of the weight loss lol
my dri had 1 of theses, i did away wit it
One of them off the throttle body makes a small air leak i belive. I know there was a differance of revs with it blocked and unblockd on mine.
Edit: I belive it came on all the spis with cats (Which i belive is all? lol)
Every car with a cat has one yeah.
Don't block the the vent line from the fuel tank!!! It'll cause it to vacuum, take the lineup the filler neck and loop it over and run it down a little - stops any major leakage should you put the car on the roof.
Block the pipe to the throttle body/inlet, as above it'll cause an air leak otherwise.
