What does this part do?

I was working on my car yesterday, and I'm unsure of what this does. In the picture you cannot see it, but that is the stock location of it. Its a round 2 inch diameter metal piece that seems to have a vacum line coming out of it.

If it's bolted to theintake near the bas of the carb, it's the EGR valve.
