WTF is this vacuum line thing?
Can I cap off these vacuum fittings and run without this line? This thing with the white and green pill or whatever?
I lost the ****** at some point during my rebuild :(

As you suspected, it is a one-way checkvalve. It goes between the manifold plenum and the VICS vacuum reservoir.
edit: Just saw that you have an '03. My guess would be that it's the vacuum check valve for the VTCS actuator.

on a turbo car, i'd plug both ends and leave it disconnected.
after mazda recalled the ECUs and implemented some shitty "VTCS closed a lot" it sucks for turbo applications.
