Actually I think that part is critical. I think it's job is to make sure the siphon jets go only from left to right.
Her is what I mean: when the car is pitched up or down one siphon jet will be sucking air and may not produce any voiume maybe it's job is to make sure there isn't reverse flow going in a circle from back to front of the left tank.
This is absolutely a guess. I can't even remember the direction of flow on the thing I just remember it's a very soft spring that would "suggest" the direction of flow. Maybe more to keep the siphon jet lines primed when the car is off? The seal is plastic to plastic it's not going to hold forever more of a suggestion, perhaps to prevent damage to the siphon head in the case of overpressure from the FPR?
