Default Plastic cap on the passenger side of the fuel injector pipe assembly?

Can someone tell me the name and function of this plastic cap on the passenger side of the fuel injector pipe assembly? I've been scanning schematics but can't find it. Mine was cracked w/ a lose screw inside so I'm trying to research.

I'm more at home on a computer than wrenching so thanks for any help

What is this plastic cap???

It doesn't do anything besides covering the banjo nut and fitting.

pretty sure it is a cap for the fuel pulsation dampener,built into the fuel rail. Honda meant for it to even out the fuel pressure pulsations. At least that 's the theory. There could be a small screw in the dampener so that might be why there is a cap on it. My S2000 had one in the centre of the fuel rail.

Pretty much since aftermarket fuel rails don't use it, Honda wanted it there for some reason but it doesn't seem all that useful.
