Andreas, I apologise for not getting back to you sooner, but i was a little unsure of what you meant??
That is an older pic from my engine bay, and it is a SPEC-R made Power Steering Re-Location kit. This is available from SPEC-R (01225 705507) for around £160 IIRC??
The idea, is to move the Power Steering Tank from its original position, to where the Carbon Cannister is normally located, to allow for a larger, better flowing Inlet pipe to the turbo to be fitted. (As the MY01 cars have)

Ps, here is a more recent/Better pic of the items mentioned

Mine went in the bin! LOL 
Seriously, I vented all the breathers to atmosphere, apart from the smallest of the pipes which was blocked off. I do get a little whiff of fuel when car is first started from cold now and then, but nothing serious. Was a case of needing to re-locate the PS more than having the Cannister there. I have thought of putting the cannister back on the car in a different place, but haven't got round to doing it yet!
Hmmm, maybe a job for me tomorrow thinking of it!
