my TB A1/A2/E ports aren't covered

[ChiGGz]

I bought a 97 GSX with a 1g TB, 1g head, 2 g bottom. I noticed on my TB that the A1/A2/E/P ports arent connected to anything (theres no vacuum line feed, its just solid metal where you would feed the tubes) and only the P port has a gold colored filling in it leaving the others to possibly suck in atmospheric air?
I'm looking at other peoples engine bays...and they all have tubes coming out of the AEP ports, and not only that, all ports have the gold filling in it..

Is this OK?

so they are basicly plugg'd with the "gold filling" ?
It sounds like your emitions stuff is removed. ( charcole canistor and EGR valve )
If you dont have a CEL from it and u dont need emitions testing in your state -- its fine.

only the P port is plugged with the gold filling..the rest have holes in them, unplugged
But no, I do not get a CEL. Like i said, normally where there would be tubes, all I see is a flat block except for the P feed tube which has been corked.
Hope this makes sense

ooohhhhhh so you have only 1 barbed fitting comming off your t/b -
and that 1 fitting is "corked" - ya should be fine.

What's the reason why its different from every other dsm TB I see?
