The #62 orifice simply restricts the volume to the circuit downstream. It's probably used to prevent a massive vacuum loss if a hose is disconnected or it cracks.

I strongly recommend that you eliminate the line that plugs into #1, eliminate the line that plugs into #2 and eliminate the line that plugs into #3. Much nicer underhood environment.

Thanks Brian. Before I rerouted last weekend I had lines going to all 5 holes. Unsurprisingly, Everything connected up and they were just extra sticks of line plugged in it seemed. But I was curious if there was a purpose.
