Second one goes to the flux capacitor harness through the firewall and under the dash.
Everyone knows the flux capacitor didn't come out until 1985.

I think these are for the air pump that is probably not there any more

Do you know if that pump is worth putting back on?

If the pump is gone then the ports in the exhaust manifolds are probably plugged off I would say it is probably not worth the trouble or expense to try and make it functional again.

What it’s function?
emissions, it warms the oxygen sensor up faster for better control of the air fuel mixture and warms up the cat converter for better emissions out of the tail pipe.

Ok thanks I know it’s a dumb question I just like the way older stuff looks when it’s all original. Do you you know where I could get some pics for reference?

Just so you know most of the original Gbody smog pumps and their related components ended up here.
