Great tutorial, I'm in the process of replacing my throttle body and used this tutorial as a guide. I do have a question though, what is the part from picture 23 upper right corner and where is its place? I have mine zip tied somewhere under the manifold done by a bad mechanic...

That is the purge solenoid, it attached to a metal bracket under the intake. you can see the bracket in the same photo, look below the intake ports, under the intake.
