    The one on the back is connected to a plastic tube that goes to your MAP sensor (on the firewall behind the TCC bleed relay.
    The one in front I don't know for sure. Or it's connected to your EGR valve or it is connected to your air intake snorkel for the flaps in the snorkels.

    The front one is definitely from the snorkels on the air cleaner.

    Good luck starting it up.

    I rebuilt the power steering control valve and the ram -- pretty easy, not too expensive, and quite rewarding because the leaks have all stopped for now!
