Or remove your pump, I'm guessing you're not being smog tested...
That's your choice for sure if you want to put everything back like it was, Sandy would be happy to help you with that......
My priority would be, like the Irishman said, fix the fumes coming from the fuel tank/s. you have 1 or 2 tanks?

I saw a few other vacuum lines in your photo's.
Make sure they are all connected, and not leaking. Good time to replace them.
I saw a few check valves or delay devices attached, they only go one way, photograph them before you disconnect them ever.... (one color on one side, white one the other)

I have 2 tanks and will be installing the vapor can on Monday. My trucks are registered in Yuma AZ. They don't require smog, but at the end of the month I'm moving to Las Vegas NV. Supposedly they are pretty strict.

Ok, I was Happy to stop in for the day, don’t make me come back and slap you around again. Sandy seems to look after his Texan brethren.
I’ll draw a picture, whilst you lads get back to your Charcoal Canister project. (highly recommended)
There is nothing to do with your CANP valve (strap it down) for now until you get the canister installed.
(You can unplug it, put it up on your fireplace mantel for a while as a conversation piece.) Oh, you’re in Texas, do you have fireplaces in Texas?

On the very bottom of the drawing, the; "Line to Intake manifold vacuum"
This line goes to your coffee can, Solenoid side, the line with the "T" in it.
So the complete connection is from the coffee can to the bottom connection on the EGR-Solenoid, DG - Dark Green Wire. (using the vacuum line with the "T" in it.
The top port on the EGR Solenoid Valve goes to the EGR-Valve.
(you can hook these two up now, it won't cause a vacuum leak,,,,yet)

And the other side of the can will go to the closest vacuum tree. (But not until you decide to re-connect the EGR-Valve)

Rainy day project;
Take the coffee can out, look it over good for rust or leaks.
Blow in both sides to see if there is a built-in check valve.
Then plug one hole, blow smoke in the other hole, check for leaks, swap the plug, blow smoke thru the other hole, in the can, check for leaks.
(There are other ways, like, hold the can under water, I want to see the video)
Paint can, re-install.

Yeah, I have not seen a photo of his engine for a long while, man it looked good back then, and looks great now....
Yeah, your TAB Yoke is gone b'y... so no reason to do anything to that Solenoid unless you buy that $125 device.
I would cap off the two (or any) ports not used, somehow, to keep them clean for future use.
Any chance you have a Calibration Code for your Truck? (usually a sticker on the Passenger side valve cover)
