Car is a '96 Grand Prix, 3100 V6 engine with 4T60E transmission. It's a project car, I'm getting ready to pull the engine and making mental notes of what goes where, what I'm going to have to do to swap the L67 engine in it. So I've not actually taken anything apart yet, but there's a component I can't identify-- it's on the pass-side of the engine, has metal clips like an air filter box might have, except the air filter is on opposite side of the engine, as is the battery. It's right under a power distribution block and a brace, which I haven't taken off yet. It'll be awhile until I have the time to actually do any parts removal, but in the meantime do you guys know what the heck this might be?
The metal clips (one is circled in white in the photo) hold on a plastic cover much like an airbox. There is a small hole in the thin plastic, through which I can't see anything except what looks like black metal. Initially I though charcoal canister, but I'm not confident in that.
Anyone own a 3100 engine/car of this vintage can help tell what this is? Sorry for lame pictures, cell phone cameras still suck after 10+ years of making them.
