You see this little diagram of the back of the choke assembly housing? It fits in those three spots on the body and allows fresh air to be sucked in from the outside and circulated around the choke so it doesn't burn up. It has a little brass filter and screen on the other side to keep from sucking crap up. I couldn't find a better pic than this... but I didn't try all that hard considering the sissy remark.
