Identifying This Part....?

On my F-150 (302), There's a part in front of the EGR Valve with an electrical plug going to it. It also has a hose going to the Throttle Body. The hose also goes to the passenger side, goes close to the battery then goes down somewhere.

While removing my EGR valve, I knocked the hose loose from the throttle body.(without knowing). I drove today with no problems, except it would Idle at 1000-1100RPM. I plugged the hose back and Idle is back to normal.

Any one know what this part is? I'll post a pic when I can.

Canister purge valve for evaporative emissions control (burns the fumes from the gas tank).

By looking at some pics, I might be describing the Canister Purge Solenoid:

Valve:


Either or, I learned two new parts
