Crankcase ventilation (black tower rising from engine, fattish black hose going forward, may have a small heater inserted in the hose)? Vacuum hose/checkvalve for power brakes (left side, goes forward through firewall)? Vacuum tube/vacuum-operated valve for purging the charcoal canister (right side at firewall, has a half-inch tube running through firewall to the charcoal canister)?
