Part question

Guys just got a question on what a part is. Dont have a picture so I will do my best to explain it. My truck is a 00 F250 4X4. Didnt notice till today when I was cleaning out my interior, but passenger side, up under the dash there was what looked like 2 wires (or tubes) going to a silver kind of round, about 3 inches long, almost had a look of a small oil filter shape. Thats about the best I can describe it. Is this supposed to be there, and if so what is it? Ill try to get out and get some pictures in a bit, but busy with work right now.

Vacuum actuator for the panel controls in the HVAC system.

Sounds good. Just didnt know what it was, and the wires were hanging. Need to get them tied back up under the dash when I get access to my zipties.

Are they wires or vacuum lines?

Is this the part you are referring to?
