My guess is that was used for some type of pyrometer probe.. What brand is it? That may help.

If you just want to plug the holes you can weld a patch on it. Or if you don't feel comfortable take it to a muffler shop, while it is still off the car, and ask them to patch the hole for you.

Yeah, the early 2gnts had a pulsed air injection system - I think that's what its for too. You(being a 99) should just be able to cap off that fitting with no worries. :thumbsup
