I think they are some sort of check valve, but I'm not sure exactly what they do...mine has them too. Maybe they regulate the amount of vacuum going to a particular component?...Just a guess.

If there's oil in your vacuum lines, you probably have a failing vacuum pump diagphram, better get it checked, it will eventually ruin your entire vacuum system...Oil eats the rubber vacuum lines!
