I think that little gadget is probably the aircon idle-up solenoid, did you keep the aircon? if not just block the connection on the manifold for it... If you did keep the aircon it should connect to the sprinter body loom not the engine loom, it then connects to the throttle body somehow and when the aircon is on it opens and raises the idle to compensate for the load placed by the compressor...
I just blocked all the vaccum connections on my inlet (the few that are on the TB anyway) and it runns fine...
Oh mine is a bluetop BTW
Hope this helps

RobertoX is right, and the 2 others you mention, which im thinking are on the front of the throttle body, 1 is for the charcol canister, and the other is for the air-co idle up, which should be blocked if your not using airco.
