Hello, new C10 owner, and I'm trying to do some engine clean-up. I need help identifying two engine elements, that both seem to be pulling vacuum. Please let me know what they are and if and where they need to pull vacuum from. I couldn't seem to find them on the vacuum diagram. I've also included my C10's vacuum diagram if it helps.

1980 Chevy C10 305 TBI

Thanks for your help.

The thing in the first picture is the vacuum reservoir for the AC unit. The dampers are vacuum actuated. Not sure about the 2nd picture. Maybe vacuum switch/sensor for transmission?

Ok thank you, do you know if the AC Vacuum reservoir needs port or manifold vacuum?

Thanks for your help.
