Top item is your evap surge tube. Goes on driver's side, just above the coil packs, and snaps into a tube coming out of the front of the intake manifold. You should have a big 'ol air leak. The red wire is probably the previous owner's added accessory wire to power some unknown aftermarket thingie. I may have used the wrong terms for this stuff, but generally, it's the gist. GL.

Yep, that's the right spot. Should go on the end of that thing that says "Delphi" in your picture. Right end looks unconnected, maybe?
That hose just sits in there kind of floppin' around. Lays on the valve cover.

Your front hose is OK. The "extra" hose you show hooks to the thing marked Delphi and runs along the manifold to hook to another hose at the end of the valve cover, near the PCV valve.
This is where it hooks up at the rear of the eng compartment.
