it is a pulse dampener. and if the GE rail has AN style fittings on the end of it you will not need the dampener. it is used to keep the fuel pump quiet.

thats the factory banjo fitting, under that plastic cap is a screw, i think its called the fule system bleeder screw, for when yo uneed to remove the rail and remove pressure, you wont need it if you are running a stainless line, but you will need a fittin from the rail to an -AN fitting, GE knows what size they are

You can get rid of it... it smooths out the fuel pressure in the rail... supposed to make the car run smoother etc.
