Pictures! Hoses, egr selonoid and where do they go.

Picture one should be of the egr selonoid.
There are two hose connections there. When I was taking my fuel rails and everything apart to replace the fuel injectors I unhooked the hoses and couldn't remember exactly where they went. I've been driving around and so far nothing 'bad' has happened but then again whenever I accelerate a weird awful noise occurs and I get a check engine light. Haven't had a chance to catch the code yet.

Looking at it dead on in the picture; what those the left hose come from and where does the right hose come from. Just to make sure I got them hooked up right.
==I know one is split off from a t that goes hooks up underneath the throttle body. Which hose?
==The other one goes into the egr valve underneath the plenum. WHich hose?

On to picture two, it's by the brake master cylinder on top of there. The main hose comes from the emissions canister. it goes into that round ball looking t thing. The big hose with my hose clamp on it, is my main question, where is that supposed to go?

==Sorry, closed the hood but I think that hose goes into the passenger side of the plenum next to the tiny 'valve' stem where the fuel regulator connects to.

Info. on my car, I had the diagram but it didn't go into detail, plus pictures speak a thousand words and all that good stuff.

--Still have all my emissions and not getting rid of them since I have to go through emissions here in Arizona and depending on the station they can be rough. They kept trying to pull my hoses loose so that's why I have those hose clamps on there! My brother took it in and they rigged up some sort of contraption, not sure what, but they tugged with a string and would fail him when the hoses popped off. He went to autozone or checkers and put hose clamps on all the hoses leaving the cannister!

Here is another question, I was recently underneath my car and noticed that there is a hose that connects to the catalytic converter and comes from somewhere in the engine bay and I'm thinking from the A.I.R system but is that what routes all the 'bad' stuff to the cat or it it something else?

Left it unhooked since it's been that way, won't hook it up until I learn what its for.


---Thanks for the replies---
Trying to eliminate all possibilities or things I did before before I try to figure out why I get that horrible noise when I try to accelerate and then my check engine light comes on. Need to pull the code then I can try to see where that takes me to.
