It's for the PCV system. You can run the hoses venting into the atmosphere, but they will be sharting oil out.

I ran mine for a while with that port closed off. Idle wasn't as smooth, but it ran just fine. I'm no expert on this system, though.

the port you closed off is a vacuum source. Since the E55 has SBC you really dont need it. On the CL55 that is connected to the brake booster.

True, it is also used on the S55.
