Hey mate. It's the evap valve solenoid. Connects the charchol canister to the intake. It about $80 from Holden.
If you unplug the solenoid and blow against the direction of flow you should not have any flow. If you do it's your problem.
I your having idle or running issues check the plastic pipe for cracks. It's starts driver side throttle body (90 degree rubber connector) under the intake manifold to the valve

My solenoid started loudly ticking after I did a power steering flush. I could hear it with bonnet down standing at drivers door. I changed mine and it doesn't tick now. Try removing it and blowing against the flow. It shouldn't flow any air.

I didn't have running or idle problems. Didn't use more fuel etc. just the ticking pissed
Me off
