Down there is the VAPOR canister, that's for gas fumes.
The VACUUM tank is a big round tube in the front of the motor, the tank should have 3 ports.

Depending on what your doing with the car you can get rid of a lot of stuff.
The vapor canister on the 76 if I remember right is dual purpose.
It collects fuel vapors from the carb after the engine is shut off and vents the fuel tank.
You can "get by" with a vented gas cap.
