That combo line had vapor pipes, coolant pipes - not clear why the water is passing through this assembly. Attaches to the back (drivers side) of the head and the thermostat housing.

<EDIT> This conversation says the coolant lines have to do with keeping the oil vapor warm and not condensing in the little lines...(?) Makes sense.

It's to keep it from freezing as well.

The throttle stays on so you don't need that gasket.
