Default EGR Valve

Hi there, i've got a 1.6 1980 esky pano. Does anyone know what the EGR valve is for on the inlet manifold. Its the little block looking thing above the distributor cap? Also on the inlet is the brake servo vaccum hose,distributor vacuum hose,crankcase ventilation hose and heater hose. Does anyone know which one of these i can do without when switching over to a gt manifold and weber setup?
